Nationwide driving instructor training
Before you can operate as a driving instructor in the UK you have to pass the DSA Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) qualifying exam and be accepted onto the ADI Register. The exam is made up of three parts; a theory and driving test similar to the current tests for learner drivers, and a practical test of your ability to instruct where the examiner expects you to give them a driving lesson as he or she plays the role of a learner driver. Once you have passed the first two parts (i.e. theory and driving) and receive a minimum of 40 hours of Part 3 training from a sponsoring driving school such as LDC you can potentially start to earn money as a trainee on a Trainee Licence. Please also note the sponsorship and minimum training is a legal requirement to be eligible for a Trainee Licence.
