Advanced Driving Courses

You may already be a proficient driver, but taking an advanced driving course will boost your skills behind the wheel. Want to become a more confident driver? Or maybe you just feel you’re a little out of practice? Our courses for existing licence holders can set you on the road to being a driving expert.

Refresher courses are a minimum of two hours, although we recommend around five to get the most out of them. As mentioned, these can be tailored to any area in which you’d like to improve. There’s no qualification, but we guarantee that you’ll be more confident and capable as a result.

Pass Plus is Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA)-recognised course which enhances your driving ability. It’s a six-hour session, after which you’ll receive a certificate. You’ll also be a more courteous, safer driver, with better road awareness and vehicle control. This qualification is most popular among newly qualified drivers.

You can choose the areas and skills you’d like to concentrate on. But ultimately, any advanced course for existing licence holders will aim to make you a safer, more competent driver.

Skills you can learn include, but are not limited to:

Taking a refresher course won’t qualify you for a car insurance discount. But although these courses aren’t recognised by car insurance providers, you might reduce your premiums indirectly by being a safer driver. The less likely you are to be involved in an accident, the cheaper your car insurance will get over time. This is because insurers offer better-priced insurance to motorists with a good, incident-free driving record.

The cost of advanced lessons usually varies depending on where in the country you are, and how much extra training you need. But you can get a no-obligation quote to get a better idea.
