SOME QUESTIONS
What's our unique approach?
Welcome to the ASMIT Course. This is the most revolutionary and up to date comprehensive instructor training programme you will find. No gimmicks, no theoretical approaches that cannot be applied in practice. Put simply, the most complete training experience available! We're acknowledged as one of the most accomplished training providers for expert Driving Instructor Training nationwide. We train hundreds of new instructors each year in the forefront of educating the next wave of learner drivers.
Based on a combination of 40 years real-world teaching and educational practice and all our content cross-referenced to the DVSA National Standards, we've covered every base.
We have 3 parts. We've worked hard on delivering these parts in a simple and straight forward way. Our goal is not just for you to pass your exams, but to pick up knowledge and practical skills along the way. In other words, we want to empower you to be the best. That way, you will employ the same philosophy on your own clients and business one day!
Our approach is based on revolutionary and innovative learning concepts. We understand that every individual has their own unique learning style and preferences, and it's our mission to enable you to soak in all the modalities of learning. It's going to be hard, demanding work. But it'll be hard, demanding work with a PURPOSE. So if you are prepared to dedicate your focus, energy and time into the course, you will have our undivided attention and support all the way.
Why choose to be an instructor?
The Driving Insutructor market is completely un-saturated, and a perfect market to get involved with at the moment. The Department for Transport revealed that the number of instructors has decreased by 12 percent over the past seven years. Numbers have dropped from 44,569 in 2013 to just 39,521 at the start of 2020. This creates a massive gap in the market for you.
According to the insurance firm Marmalade, currently there is 18 learner drivers for every instructor. COVID-19's increased demand even further, with people not wanting to rely on public transport anymore.
HOW CAN I BECOME AN INSTRUCTOR?
Our course includes three main learning sectors: 1, Theory knowledge and hazard perception. 2, Driving Ability. 3, Teaching Ability. All of these will be covered in depth, so you'lll have a deep understanding of every aspect.
We promise to be with you from the beginning to the end. We promise you guaranteed support throughout your training and working career. Other firms make big promises, big on theory and small or practical training. We realise that teaching is as much a practical skill as is theory. Both are important and both complement each other. We understand that there are different ways people learn and our mission is to develop in all those different ways. Like we've mentioned - our courses are hard work, and produce the best Driving Instrutors in the industry - and our price tag matches that. The full course price includes all training materials for parts 1, 2, and 3. We're very open to the idea of flexible and interest free monthly payments, as well as hourly courses. Just get in touch!
