Attend and complete the facilitated group discussion module (module-1) and the in-vehicle module (module-2).

We will run both modules in the same day unless otherwise requested or due to any unforeseen reasons.

A face-to-face group discussion of 6 to 12 learners for a 3-hour period, with two breaks. This module is where you will begin to build awareness of risks, decisions and safe driving behaviours before getting onto the road.

The session will be led by a qualified and experienced facilitator, accredited by TFNSW as well as all the necessary working with children checks in accordance with the Child Protection (Working with children) Act 2012.

Module 1 will be followed by a lunch break

The locations mentioned are tentative, may change and will be informed close to the date.

On-road coaching for 2 hours with one break. This is where you will take to the road in a driving school vehicle (fitted with dual controls) on public roads along a predefined driving route consisting of three types of drives. There you will practice low-risk strategies, as well as reinforce the safe driving behaviours you explored in Module 1 with an instructor and one other learner, who will swap seats with you to complete each type of drive.

This session will be led by a qualified and experienced instructor, accredited by TFNSW as well as all the necessary working with children checks in accordance with the Child Protection (Working with children) Act 2012.

Module-2 will start with a short break after Module-1 from the same location as Module-1 and finish at the Module-1 Location.

The 20 logbook hours will be added to your logbook upon successful completion of both module 1 and 2. Module 1 must be completed before module 2.

You may opt to complete both modules on the same day. We prefer to complete both modules on the same day. However, if you choose to complete on separate days, you are required to complete module 2 within 30 days of completing module 1. In failing to do so the full fee will be taken, and you must attend both modules at a later date to receive the 20 logbook hours.

Module 2 cannot be conducted with only one learner; therefore, it will be cancelled due to nonattendance of a learner. We will reschedule module 2 for the attending learner at a later date with no further cost to the attending learner.
