The Part 1, 2 and 3 ADI Training Modules
The training course has 3 parts and you need to pass 3 tests in order to become a fully qualified and Approved Driving Instructor.
Part 1 – The ADI Theory Test
This test is made up of 2 sections: Multiple choice and Hazard perception. You need to pass both sections before you can advance to Part 2. We provide you with all of the materials to help your studies, which includes unlimited access to our Theory Study App. Although Part 1 is mainly home study we will be monitoring your progress continually. More info on Part 1 HERE
Part 2 – The ADI Driving Test
This is very similar to the current driving test for learners, but slightly longer and more robust. You need to pass part 2 before you can move onto part 3. Your trainer will assess your current driving skills in order to tailor a detailed program of training to help you pass. Most people require approximately 14-20 hours training to be up to test standard. More info on Part 2 HERE
Part 3 – ADI Instructional Ability Test
Training will consist of 2 hour interactive driving lessons on subjects chosen by your trainer – he will simulate the role of a learner driver and assess your ability to teach by asking questions and making mistakes. Your trainer will act as the role of examiner and give you experience of different roles and teaching subjects. Each session is planned with lesson aims and constructive feedback. You will require approximately 40 hours of 1 to 1 in-car training to help you pass. Training sessions are not necessarily taken every week; they are spaced to suit your own development, pace, and your availability, so you can take training whilst still working.

How Much Does Driving Instructor Training Cost
Driving Instructor training doesn’t have to cost a fortune, you may have seen large national driving schools offering training courses for unreasonable prices which most people can’t afford. You may think that because you’re paying a substantial amount you’re getting a better service. That’s not quite true, these large driving schools are simply charging you more to cover their marketing overheads. Why should YOU the potential ADI be paying for THEIR overheads as well as your course fee!? These prices are simply unrealistic for most people.
We understand that this an investment for your future career and offer fair prices, giving you a fair start in the industry.
