MiDAS Transformation Information

MiDAS Transformation update

MiDAS was first developed by Hampshire County Council back in the 1990's in response to several accidents involving minibuses. Since this time, the materials have been updated periodically but the way the scheme operates has remained the same. We are committed to providing the best possible training product which is up to date and stays in step with the modern world to ensure that it remains as relevant today and, in the future, as it was at its conception.

We, with our partners the Community Transport Association (CTA) who operate the scheme outside of Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Southampton, and Portsmouth and utilising some funding made available by the national charity Motability, have embarked on a journey to transform the MiDAS product to ensure that it continues to meet these objectives. The first step we have taken is to transform the standard training materials, which will be available in Hampshire from April 2025. Further work is currently being undertaken to look at more modules available under the MiDAS umbrella.
