We currently offer a range of courses, based on time. These are designed for drivers of all abilities, experience and budget ranges:
- 3.5hr – Our shortest course, ideal for those that need a short session for a range of reasons. Also popular for company clients who are training many drivers
- 2 x 3.5hr – If a full day is too much, and a half-day not long enough, then our 2 x 3.5hr session is a great alternative. It allows time to absorb what has been taught on the first session, and to then carry on and progress on the final session
- 7hr full day – A full day can be hard for some drivers, but for others is a great duration as it gets the training completed in one day, and is cheaper than splitting it over 2 sessions
- For those that want more of a comprehensive session, we offer 3 – 4 and 5 x 3.5hr sessions. Designed for those with significant issues that need addressing, or for those that simply want the maximum level of bespoke one to one training possible.
Our courses in Glasgow cover a wide range of roads in and around the city. We cover the following road types during our training:
Rural roads – We head out of the centre on a range of roads including the A8, A725, A737 towards Edinburgh, or south towards East Kilbride, sometimes rural training takes drivers north-west towards Dumbarton.
Motorway training – We use a range of motorways including the M80, M73 and M8. Glasgow has an extensive network of motorways, which is great for motorway training.
Urban roads – The centre of Glasgow is busy and makes a great location for urban driver training. We incorporate parts of the motorway training with urban training, with the M8 and M74 flowing directly into the centre. If traffic is too heavy in the centre we can move out towards Baillieston, Bishopbriggs or similar.
