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.

Driving Instructor Training in South London

By
KISS Trainer Rod is in Sydenham, South London working with Atta, Ben, Hakim, Sandra and Zahra covering ADI Part 2 and ADI Part 3 training . Our trainees today have come from Bromley, Croydon, Greenwich and Woolwich. Very much part of the KISS Driving Instructor Training programme is the help we get from our local ADI's who turn up at our weekly ADI training sessions to help develop our trainees. At KISS we train people to becoema driving instructor first and pass the tests second. This is because a good driving instructor will be able to pass the tests. Someone who has been trained just to pass the tests invariably fails to develop their career according to statistics.
