What Is a PDI Course?
A PDI course is a structured training program that prepares candidates to become driving instructors. “PDI” stands for Potential Driving Instructor, which refers to anyone training to become an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI). The process consists of three main parts:
- Theory Test (Part 1) – Road safety, instructional techniques, and driving law.
- Driving Ability (Part 2) – A practical test assessing advanced driving skills.
- Instructional Ability (Part 3) – A test that evaluates your teaching methods and interaction with learners.
At Driving School Automatic, we provide complete support for all three parts. Our PDI teacher courses are designed to help you not only pass your tests but also prepare you for a real-world teaching environment.
