When I decided to train as a driving instructor, I applied to several companies to see what was on offer. I selected LDC because of the complete package they offered and the way that they presented themselves. The training and back up was so helpful and professional, that after I had qualified, I had no hesitation in joining the franchise.
After three good years with LDC, I decided to have a go on my own and although successful, I missed the support that comes from being part of a larger organisation. I would not have considered joining anyone else, so I have now rejoined LDC.

Like many other potential ADI's my first decision was which company to use for my training. After researching two or three options it became obvious that one, LDC, was head and shoulders above the rest. LDC ticked ALL the boxes - from the comprehensive training they offered and the low franchise fee through to the support offered during and after qualifying.
Parts One and Two were passed first time, but when I struggled with Part 3 (failing twice) this is when LDC really came into their own. Extra training had already been offered, at NO further cost, after my first failed attempt then after my second fail, just when I thought the world was against me, Malcolm suggested I made the trip up to Head Office in Pontefract for some further training. I did as he suggested and received a further six hours of training, again at NO further cost, with Val Wood the head of the Training Department - then successfully passed my final attempt the following day ~ PHEW !! On my return to Head Office following my test all the team were genuinely delighted that I'd passed ~ that's what it's like - EVERYONE is made to feel special. A great team ethic.
A 3-day induction course followed with Bob Morton which, as well as being really interesting and informative, was also very relaxed and great fun.
A personalised website, Facebook/Google + page, discounted stock and some fantastic IT support are just a few of the things that the LDC driving school franchise offer their instructors ~ just what's needed when venturing out into the big wide world of Driver Training.
Being a driving instructor is a fantastic job - its a great feeling waking up in the morning actually looking forward to going to work!!!
My only regret about joining LDC ~ I should have done it YEARS ago !!!

I decided to become a driving instructor after graduating from university and failing to find a graduate job. After a lot of research into training companies, LDC was recommended to me by a work colleague whose partner was training with LDC. Signing up with LDC has been the best career decision I have ever made, I now have a job that I love, working with in my opinion the best driving school in the country.
I found the LDC training course excellent; no minor detail is left to chance. What I liked about LDC is the dedicated training team who were always there to help. My local LDC tutor was fantastic, always available to answer any questions whether big or small. I passed my part 1 & 2 on my first attempt and my part 3 on my 2nd attempt. I would never have done this without the high quality of training I received from LDC.
After qualifying it was a natural step for me to join the LDC franchise. Now 10 months on from qualifying I have a thriving driving school business with all the support I need just a phone call away.
If you are serious about becoming a driving instructor I would highly recommend LDC as your training company.
