WHAT WILL THE

SAFE DRIVERS COURSE 

TEACH LEARNER DRIVERS?

The safe driving course with Learn Drive Survive® is delivered by qualified trainers and experienced driving instructors. The course is broken down into two (2)  components. 

Module 1 (classroom) and Module 2 (in-vehicle). Module 1 is conducted by an experienced facilitator and involves a three (3) hour group discussion set in a classroom environment. Throughout Module 1, learners will explore the behaviours and effective management strategies to become safer drivers. 

Module 2 of the course is a two (2) hour practical coaching session. This session involves two (2) students and a qualified coach (instructor) in the vehicle at a time.
