I wanted a career change that would be flexible and manageable. This also needed to be applied to the training I would receive. After a lot of researching and talking to "real" LDC instructors and trainers I chose to train with LDC and have achieved my goal in becoming a driving instructor. More importantly I am still able to get advice and help from LDC.

When I decided to become a driving instructor I did a lot of research into the different companies. What made me look more closely at LDC was how they trained learners as I felt the LD System made sense to me and was the way I would have liked to have been trained so felt I could sell the benefits to others. The instructor training course was based on the same principles and approach, the home study allowed me to prepare for my in car training sessions and therefore make the most of this valuable time.
Before starting to teach we had a 3 day induction course at the head office which was invaluable in how to run your business correctly and professionally, and how to make the most of the LD System.
I have now been with the franchise for over 7 years now and it works perfectly for me. It allows me the freedom to build up my own reputation whilst having the benefits of their marketing expertise, brand name and most importantly the LD System as my USP to help me stand out from the rest.
Not only can I use the LD workbooks and DVDs but I can also sell them at a good profit, especially as they give me 50 LD workbooks a year worth £750 as part of my franchise agreement!

I joined LDC after what seemed months of in depth research into various franchise schemes. I wanted to qualify quickly but at the end of the day the important thing was to qualify, and with LDC's superb training record and pass rate, it quickly became the obvious choice. With excellent training materials, one-to-one training and a friendly office team always on hand to help, I managed to become a qualified instructor.
I have been up and running for just over a year now and I honestly believe, I have the best of both worlds. Whilst I wasn't keen to become just a number in one of the bigger companies and I felt it too daunting to set up on my own. LDC is a happy medium; each instructor is able to operate independently with personalised websites and your own name and number on your car. So what's great is for a low monthly franchise, I am able to run the business and promote myself how I want, whilst still having the support of the office and a number of pupils generated by the sales team.
