Description
To become an approved driving instructor, you’ll need to pass three training sections.
ADI part one
Part one of the qualification process comprises two separate tests, and you are required to pass them both.
The theory test checks your knowledge of the Highway Code, general road safety, driving techniques, basic first aid knowledge and the theory of instructing a pupil. RED provides you with all the necessary training material, accessible online, and you can attempt as many mock tests as you wish on the training website to gauge your progress. The test lasts 90 minutes and you must achieve an 85 percent mark to pass.
The second test includes a hazard perception test using 14 video clips, one of which will feature two hazards. The RED training programme includes a state-of-the-art interactive video system that not only allows you to practice the test, but also reviews your performance after each attempt, helping you to recognise the hazards. On this test you must score 57 points out of a possible 75.
ADI part two
The second stage is an advanced practical driving test. You will be expected to demonstrate a professional level of driving ability with a DSA examiner. RED provides study material for the test, but the main training includes 10 hours of one-to-one training with an ORDIT registered RED trainer in a RED tuition vehicle. The test itself lasts around an hour and includes an eye test, along with general vehicle maintenance questions.
ADI part three
The final stage checks your instructional ability, preparing you to be able to pass on your driving skills to others. RED will initially provide you with 28 hours of one-to-one in-car training, at which point you can decide to take a trainee licence or continue solely with the part three training.

There is also the opportunity to earn while you learn and start giving lessons before your training is complete.
