What’s Involved in Driving Instructor Training..?

    glasses or contacts are OK.
  • That you have no more than 6 points on your licence.
  • That you are happy for the Government to run a Disclosure and Barring
    Service (DBS) check, previously known as a Criminal Records Bureau (CRB)
    check.

Once you have received your Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) number you may now register as a PDI (Potential Driving Instructor).

 

To do this, you can apply by post or online.

 

To apply by post, complete your ADI3 (click on image to download) and return to DVSA address on form.

 

Or to apply online, click here: Online. You will need:

  • your driving licence number
  • your Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and the date it was produced (unless you’ve been told not to get one yet)
  • details of any motoring or non-motoring offences, and disqualifications from driving or of any court cases being brought against you

 

The DVSA will write to confirm your registration and PRN.

This whole process can take about 4-6 weeks so we advise starting your studies ASAP and complete Part 1 whilst this process is completed.

You now have your DVSA PRN (personal reference number). You may now book your 1st test when ready.
