Driving Instructor Training

Introduction:

Each year many thousands of people learn to drive. The role of the driving instructor has changed considerably over the last few years.

The modern, professional instructor offers…

• ‘L’ Driver Tuition.
• Motorway Tuition.
• Advanced Driver Training.
• Defensive Driver Training.
• Classroom Tuition and Home Studies.
• Vehicle Maintenance Training

Learning to drive is preparation for a “Life Long Skill.” A properly trained driving instructor teaches in a methodical way using structured courses with clearly defined objectives.

If you are interested in Road Safety and enjoy both driving and meeting people, and in addition would like to run your own business then this could be the start of a new, worthwhile career.

THE FARNWORTH SCHOOL OF MOTORING WILL STRUCTURE YOUR TRAINING TO SUIT YOUR PERSONAL REQUIREMENTS.

For maximum training benefit Parts 1, 2 and 3 are strongly recommended. Students applying for the full training course qualify for FREE ADDITIONAL TRAINING if needed, providing all three Parts have been booked and paid for in advance. This will apply for 12 months from the commencement of Part 1. There is also the benefit of a discount. Please enquire for details.

Candidate Requirements:

You must:

1) Hold a full British or Northern Ireland unrestricted car driving licence.

2) Have held your driving licence for a total of at least four out of the past six years prior to entering the Register after qualifying, but a foreign licence, an automatic car driving licence or a provisional licence held after passing the driving test, all count towards the four years.
