Why choose The Instructor College Direct?
The Demand for Instructors is growing
The driving instruction industry is at a most exciting time. In today’s fast-moving society, it is essential to be able to travel independently and so the importance of learning to drive cannot be ignored. With the number of lessons taken by each learner to pass the driving test increasing year on year, the demand for professionally trained driving instructors is enormous. The driving test itself is becoming ever more complex and demanding and as road conditions become busier, new instructors will witness a growing demand in the number of driving lessons required by their students.
The DSA estimate that an average pupil will take at least 40 hours tuition to pass the current driving test, and this is set to double by 2010, compared to about 18 hours just 20 years ago. Couple this with the fact that there is a shortage of driving instructors throughout the UK, it is easy to see why existing instructors are so busy and why so many driving schools have waiting lists for pupils. The Instructor College Direct can help you take advantage of this growing opportunity and we believe we provide the best training and career development in the industry.
