Fleet/Advanced Driver Training.

Drivers Domain UKOur driving courses are based on your own needs and requirements. However, we have outlined a typical days training with us, to enable you to get a better idea of how we teach.

What happens on the day?

The initial meet and greet - After we have organised a time and place to meet, our tutor will do a few checks, such as checking the employees licence and ensure the car is legal.

The Initial drive – Your tutor will spend around 30 minutes assessing the employees driving. This will help them see what sort of driver they are, and pick up on any minor faults. All faults and observations will be recorded on one of our marking sheets.

The Main Part - The main part of the course will introduce and develop a number of concepts, which are covered below. These aspects are introduced and taught as the delegate drives, and also during recap sessions when the vehicle is parked.

Psychological Elements of Driving:

* The development of mental skills for better driving, and understanding the factors which affect your processing skills when driving.
