Are you looking for a career that puts you in charge of the hours you work and the money you can earn?
If you want to become a driving instructor who has the skills and confidence to pass on to others, then our Driving Instructor Training Courses are perfect for you. Every course is run by training experts who are experienced, knowledgeable and DVSA qualified. This ensures that every course contains the latest training methods and techniques to help you become a reliable and highly-regarded driving instructor. Our course involves road training as well as classroom training all of which comes with a broad selection of support.
We enjoy driving, teaching and helping pupils to reach their goals. However, in addition to a passion for driving and teaching, our driving instructor training courses are especially suited to anyone searching for a job.
If you are experiencing unemployment and finding it difficult to move forwards in an alternative career path, then becoming a driving instructor might be the perfect job for you.
We understand that every individual is different. We offer you a personalised training package that focuses on your experience and understanding. The mixture of in-car training and classroom modules work together to provide you with a broad and in-depth training experience.
You will be paired up with your own in-car trainer when you enrol on our Lanes instructor training course. They will live in close proximity to you so that they can offer you their help and support while you are training to become a driving instructor.
In order to become a qualified driver and vehicle standards agency approved driving instructor
you are required to pass the dvsa test. This test consists of three parts.
To complete this section of the course you will have access to all the reference books that you require as recommended by the DVSA. To help aid learning you will be given access to classroom sessions that will take place in our training suite. You will be taught the syllabus by a trained instructor who is also on hand to provide support when required. There are more than 400 hazard perception clips available as well as a range of DVDs to help you learn.
This is the practical section of the driving instructor course that covers in-car driving. This will involve a journey where you will be assessed and given additional training to help fine-tune your driving ability. Once you have passed the second section of the test you are now able to begin working as a Trainee Driving Instructor for the Lanes Group of Driving Schools.
With the two sections passed you can now take a ‘provisional licence’ for six months. This will enable you to teach pupils within a sponsored driving school. There is a requirement to take an additional twenty hours of training that has to be completed within the first three months of being issued your Trainee License. You are now a Trainee Instructor which allows you to teach and earn money as you train to pass the third part of the course.
You will be given practical in-car instructor training and tuition within a classroom. As every individual is different, the driving instructor training course is structured to suit them. Training sessions are carried out in two hour blocks and this allows you to train around your current working pattern.
