| PART
I - Theory and Hazard Perception |
 |
 |
| Once
enrolled on a Lane's instructor training course you will be supplied with all
reference books recommended by the DSA and offered classroom sessions in our
training suite where one of our trained instructors will be available to guide
you through the syllabus. You will have the opportunity to practice with over
400 hazard perception clips and to see a range of educational
DVD's. |
|
| PART
II - Test of Practical Driving |
 |
|
| Our
Part II training is designed to demonstrate and tutor you to a high standard of
driving required for the practical test. We offer a practical in-car driving
skills course, which includes an assessment drive and unlimited further
training to perfect your driving skills. On passing the Part II test you can
start working as a Provisional Driving Instructor within the
Lanes Group of Driving Schools |
|
| PART
III - Test of Instructional Ability |
 |
|
| We
offer unlimited practical in-car instructor training together with classroom
tuition. The courses are structured to the individual with training sessions in
two hour blocks - this enables you to fit your training around your existing
work. Using our unique Lanes training manuals and audio CD's you will find
training both constructive and enjoyable. |
| If you wish to take advantage of the six-month provisional licence
to teach, you must by law, complete a further twenty hours in-car training
before you can take the Part III test. A separate package is available for
people participating with a Trainee Licence. |
|
| In the Event of Failure |
|
| If you fail, you are allowed as many attempts as necessary for the
Part I test, but only three attempts each at Parts II and III. Therefore it is
very important that you are thoroughly prepared before attempting any of the
tests. The Driving Standards Agency recommend that you take a proper training
course before you take each part of the qualifying tests. |
|
| Provisional Licence to Teach (Trainee
Licence) |
|
| A
Trainee Licence is issued by the government under a scheme that allows you to
take a six month 'provisional licence' to teach once you have passed the first
two parts of the tests: this can be achieved in as little as 6 weeks. The DSA
stipulate that you must be sponsored by a driving school as a Trainee
Instructor, and that you must receive a minimum of forty hours training before
you will be allowed to teach pupils. |
 |
| Once you have received this training you will be eligible to be
issued with a Trainee Licence. In addition you are required to undertake a
further twenty hours of training during the first 3 months of the issue of your
Trainee Licence. A separate package is available for people participating with
a Trainee Licence. You will now be allowed to teach as a Trainee Instructor
allowing you to earn an income whilst training towards successful completion of
Part III.

|
| Course Objectives |
|
The main purpose of our training programme is to provide good quality
driving instructors to work within the company. However, some people may wish
