Course set up

  1. Completion of the course requires the participant to first attend and complete the Facilitated Group Discussion (Module One) followed by the in -Vehicle Module (Module Two).
  2. Module one is a facilitated group discussion module (3 hours) to build safe decisions, low risk driving and understanding of risks.
  3. Module two is an in- vehicle coaching module (two hours) to practise how to apply low risk driving strategies when driving.
  4. Module Two must be completed as soon as possible after finishing Module One or within 4 weeks because learner drivers will remember more of what they have learnt in Module one, which will make it easier to apply on the road.
