UK Familiarisation Courses











If you are new to the UK, the rules and road procedures may be different than in your home country, therefore I run a UK familiarisation course where you will
be shown how to drive safely on the UK roads.

This course is ideal for those who have just moved to the UK, employ overseas staff in a company or if you employ an au pair to look after your children. For
an au pair, this course would be ideal as they can also get familiar with the vehicle that they are going to use and this would be of particular benefit if the au
pair has only driven a small hatchback in their home country and is going to be driving a 4 x 4 or people carrier.

All courses will be:
  • Fully structured and be-spoked to suit your needs
  • At the end of the course you will receive a written driving report which will highlight areas to consider for continued improvements

Course syllabus
Due to the differences from around the world, the main syllabus will include the following:
  • Roundabouts
  • Junctions
  • Traffic lights
  • Pedestrian crossings
  • Motorway driving

If you run a company and you wish to put a group of overseas staff through a UK familiarisation course then I can do a power point  group presentation and
combine this with an on road defensive driving course.

Training location:
The training will be carried at a mutually convenient location

Training vehicle:
The training is usually carried out in the client's vehicles as this is what the driver is familiar with. The vehicle must be suitable, roadworthy, taxed, have an
MOT if applicable and be fully insured. If you don't have a vehicle then I can provide one.

Eye sight, licence checks and other information:
All drivers must hold a valid current licence for the vehicle they will be driving and must be able to read a vehicle registration plate from a distance of 67 feet
(20.5m) If glasses are required then they must be worn throughout the training. If drivers are on medication then this will be noted and the driver should
check with their pharmacist as to whether it is safe to drive whilst taking the medication.
