The biggest problem in the motorcycle training industry is simple:
Instructors are taught to bash through a CBT but not taught how to teach it properly!
Most instructors fail assessments, struggle with learners needs, and get frustrated with customers during training:
It’s because you aren’t taught how to teach properly:
You learned through:
But the DVSA expects:
Our 2 phase programme fixes all of that, it stops bad habits setting in.
It elevates you from being a hobbyist instructor, to being a professional educator who understands the teaching framework, principles and professional delivery.
This course is the ideal development path for:
✓ ATB owners who want to Down-Train their own staff properly
✓ Instructors who want to train other Instructors
✓ Instructors who are serious about being professional trainers
✓ New instructors wanting a structured, professional route
✓ Down-trained instructors who want to perform to a higher standard
✓ Instructors who have a Standard Check looming
✓ Trainers who have not been taught education principles
✓ Trainers who need to prepare properly for CBT or DAS assessments
✓ Instructors who want clarity and proper teaching skills

✓ Trainers who want to future-proof themselves as DVSA standards rise
This programme is designed for trainers and ATB owners alike, it gives the foundational framework for delivering professional motorcycle training. Once you understand how to teach, it makes it easier to train learner riders properly.
Most instructors are not taught:
Instructors are simply told: “Watch me for a few days/weeks and you’ll be able to do it.”
This is the industry norm and is well past its sell by date. This programme finally replaces watch and copy imitation, with proper structured teacher education.

No. This is a structured, progressive programme. Both phases are required to gain your Adult Education Award Level 3 certificate.
But they are done separately, Phase 1 must be done before Phase 2.
No it doesn’t replace the Foundation Course, it is a completely separate course.
Our advice to enrol on this course is to have previous practical experience delivering the CBT to learner riders.
You should have completed Element E and understand what satisfactory looks like to issue a CBT certificate to new riders.

This is the start of your pathway to higher education.
This course is the correct path for anyone who wants to become a professional instructor, not a down-trained imitator.
Having formal qualifications is expected by learner riders who are starting to question who is training them.
Further to this, the DVSA are looking more closely at education standards and have elevated the criteria. This is a good thing and can only be good for the training industry as a whole.
In short – YES.
The DVSA have been raising the standards of Standards Checks since 2021, they are more demanding and have an assessment framework that aligns with adult education.
Those without educational training will start to fall behind, Earned Recognition is coming and this ensures trainers who are qualified score higher.
The industry needs better instructors.
The DVSA is raising the bar. Don’t be one of the hundreds of low level instructors losing their job.
This programme prepares you to meet and exceed what is expected of a modern Motorcycle Instructor.
