Driving Instructor Training in Durham
A fresh start as a driving instructor
You can look forward to better control of your life, your hours and your work-life balance, the excitement of a new challenge, freedom from fear of redundancy, being your own boss and driving your own career. All because you chose to train as a driving instructor. It’s rewarding, too – the pride in helping people over one of life’s biggest hurdles, and the prospect of earning £35,000 full-time.
To start with, all that’s basically required are patience, people skills and a driving licence with no more than five points. Then you’re on course to an ADI (Approved Driving Instructor) qualification with EasyPass, the provider of driving instructor training in Durham with a success rate three times the national average pass rate.
There couldn’t be a more opportune time
The plain fact is there’s a long-term shortage of driving instructors in the UK. Numbers have declined over the years whilst the demand for driving lessons has been going up. What does that say about the market you’ll be entering?
Data from the Department of Transport shows a 12% fall in numbers over the last seven years. Meanwhile, rising birth rates have resulted in more 17 year-olds ready to convert provisional licences into full ones. As demand steadily grows, you can see the sooner you start training the better.
EasyPass Driving school is owned and run by driving instructors for driving instructors. Amongst our team are a group of seasoned specialists in driving instructor training. All of them are Driver and Vehicles Standards Agency (DVSA) ORDIT registered Grade A, with a 25 year track record. You won’t find a more professional provider of driving instructor training in Durham or the whole North East.
We can arrange courses with locally based driving instructors in Durham, Newcastle, Sunderland, Gateshead, Durham, North and South Tyneside, wherever is convenient for you.
Why EasyPass is your gateway to independence
We welcome candidates of any background to take the driving seat on course for a new career. Recent successes include an ex-solicitor, ex-members of the armed forces and taxi drivers. So this could easily be you. What can you expect from the EasyPass experts in driving instructor training in Durham?
You can learn at your own pace thanks to our flexible course options. You can be ready in just two weeks with our fast track course, but you can pace yourself with a choice of eight or sixteen week courses on either a part time or full time basis. This means you can go all out for a new start in life with the intensive option or manage to fit in the training with your current job.
The first part of the course, Driving Theory, you can do at home using materials we provide. The second and third parts, totalling 60 hours, are hands-on, one-to-one sessions on the road with your trainer: Driving Ability to bring your existing personal driving ability up to the rigorous standard Ability required by the DVSA; and Instructional Ability to gain the skills and knowledge for you to be able to deliver an effective course of driving lessons by yourself.
After passing all three parts, you’ll be awarded the green badge which means you’re a fully qualified driving instructor (ADI). What then?
If you join EasyPass as a franchised instructor, you are paid by the student directly or pre-paid via the website, and for a small franchise fee we provide you with the stream of work and full 7-day-a-week office support. All you do is teach. Independence is yours.
