Driving Instructor Qualification Set for Future Overhaul

Image
By Boray Designs
The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) is consulting on a range of proposals to modernise the way in which people qualify to become approved driving instructors (ADIs).

The aim is to further improve training for new drivers and offer a cost-effective and flexible training route for new instructors. 
Proposals include the option of replacing the existing DSA qualifying tests with a new vocational qualification. This would:
  • Be delivered by approved training centres and assessed by an external awarding organisation
  • Incorporate transferable credits that trainees could carry forward to other vocational qualifications, allowing for better job mobility
  • Be aligned with DSA’s national standards that set out what skills are needed to be an effective driving instructor
  • Reflect any changes introduced as a result of the government’s upcoming green paper on young drivers

The consultation also includes a proposal to reform the trainee licence scheme which allows trainee instructors to gain experience by giving paid tuition before they are fully qualified. Read more at https://www.gov.uk/government/news/driving-instructor-qualification-set-for-overhaul.
