Approved Driving Instructor - Qualifying

Qualifying

If your application to start the qualifying process and join the Register as a Potential Driving Instructor is successful, you will need to prepare for the qualifying examination.

The qualifying examination is in three parts:

• theory (part one) - a multiple choice section and a video-based hazard perception section
• driving ability (part two) - an eyesight test followed by a practical test of driving technique
• instructional ability (part three) - a practical test of your ability to instruct

You must pass all three parts of the examination in this order and must complete the whole examination within two years of passing the theory test (part one).
