Driver Development Course
Objective of the course
To improve
driver skills with the aim of reducing the risks associated with driving, and
coaching on how to become a more economical driver.
Each course will be individually tailored to the needs of your company. In general, the course is run to a ratio of one trainer for every one or two delegates.
For the benefit of the delegates, we advise that they use a vehicle that they are familiar with. However, a vehicle can be provided if required.
Course Content
- Short Theory Session
This is informal and intended to get delegates thinking in the right direction. It includes discussion of different road situations and the benefits of effective forward planning and defensive driving.
- Practical
A driving session which covers as many different road situations as practicable. An initial assessment of each driver's skill level is followed by coaching tailored to the needs of that delegate. The trainer will give a demonstration drive with full commentary if necessary.
- Feedback
The employer and each delegate receive a full written report and are given the opportunity to discuss any further coaching needs.
