The DRM Driving Instructor Training Course
A Quality Course
Why sit a part of the exam more than once? If you train using the best quality course that is available, you are more likely to be successful at your first attempt.
DRM's programme of research and continual update of their course ensures that it stays ahead of the many changes taking place in the industry. Your will be supplied with the latest version of the course.
The DRM course has been written by Alan Hamilton, a Grade 6 Driving Instructor, the highest grade awarded by the DSA. He is also an examiner for the Diamond Advanced Driving Test, holds advanced certificates from ROSPA, IAM, and has passed the DSA Cardington special driving test.
All the DRM tutors, who deliver the DRM course have been specially trained to deliver it. They have adult education qualifications, hold advanced driving qualifications and are allowed to train under the ORDIT register rules for trainers, having met the standard required to achieve this.
DRM Driver Training are members of ORDIT
ORDIT is the Official Register of Driving Instructor Training. It is the industry 'Watch Dog' set up to ensure that you receive the high standard of training that you need to succeed.
The standards that the DRM Instructor Training College must maintain are very strict and high.
To become a member of the Register, DRM, our premises, our trainers, our record keeping, our Instructor Training Course and the training our tutors deliver are inspected every 2 years by Driving Standards Agency Inspectors.
You can thus be totally confident that the DRM course and your trainer are up to this very high standard.
All the course training manuals and books supplied are available for inspection at the DRM Centre when you come to see us.
The DRM Instructor Training College, its staff and its trainers abide by the ORDIT code of conduct.
The Benefits of Training with DRM
DRM have been successfully training people to become driving instructors for over 15 years. We are a driving school with local offices in Central Scotland as well as an Instructor Training College in Glasgow so our tutors and our staff have first hand experience of what they are training you to do.
We also provide training in the business side of being an instructor, so that you can maximise your income and keep your costs low.
This training covers customer care to help you look after your pupils and the use of the DRM Learner Driver Training Formula.
Speed of training
Because we are successful in generating a high demand from people wishing to learn to drive the DRM way, it is in our interest that you complete your training successfully and as quickly as possible. So, whatever course you chose, we will do everything we can to help you through it.
Training organisations that are not also a driving school, often don't have this urgency nor the flexibility that DRM has. So training there can take a lot longer, particularly when you have to wait for trainers to become available to teach you.
