Sourcing and Allocation
As soon as your booking is processed, we will allocate you a course instructor within 4 weeks.
This is normally much sooner than 4 weeks, but we may need some extra time in some areas due to the current demand.

Engage with online tuition
An intensive course is a condensed amount of time to learn. Support this by making use of our online resources.
By engaging in additional learning, you will ensure you are getting a step ahead leaving more of your in-car hours for practical tuition.

Confirm course schedule
Your course instructor will contact you to arrange all your hours and submit the confirmed schedule to your course coordinator. This will be sent to you for confirmation.
It is important that your schedule matches your course instructors to ensure the dates we aim for are met.

Reserve 2 hours for test day
You need at least 2 hours to cover your test appointment. This is one hour practice, 40 minutes for the test and 20 minutes for debrief and journey home.
If you live a long way from the test centre, you may need to reserve an additional half an hour for the journey home.

06
Pay course balance
We will send you a request for the balance payment. This is usually by bank transfer to keep the cost down.
As soon as your course schedule is confirmed you will need to pay the outstanding amount in full no later than 7 days prior to your confirmed start date.
(Unless you have booked with our finance option). -

Complete course
Ensure you stick to the scheduled hours as it is normally not possible to reschedule the hours due to the time constraints.
Ensure you are fully prepared for your scheduled hours. You will miss out on vital tuition time if you fail to attend for any reason. Your course instructor is not responsible for refunding missed hours, they are lost hours.
