WHAT DO I NEED TO BE AN INSTRUCTOR?
Motorcycle Instructors are regulated by the DSA (Driving Standards Agency). To apply to take the 2 day assessment at the centre in Cardington, Bedfordshire they have 3 criteria:
- Full UK motorcycle licence for at least 3 years
- Relatively clean licence
- Be a ‘fit and proper person’
A few points on your licence for a minor offence should not affect you. The ‘fit and proper’ is jargon for a clean police record, after all, you are dealing with people and in a position of trust. You must be resilient, patient and be able to communicate in a calm and effective manner. You must be a competent and safe rider and know the rules of the road…your ability to ride like Carl Fogarty is not tested!
ARE THERE DIFFERENT TYPES OF INSTRUCTOR?
Down Trained
This is where a Cardington assessed instructor trains a person to teach CBT and road riding up to 125cc. He must work for an Authorised Training Body (ATB) who can then apply for your licence. You do not sit a test or assessment as it is the ATB instructor that is certifying that you are trained.
Cardington Assessed
These instructors have passed a 2 day assessment at Cardington. The assessors are all DSA motorcycle examiners and give nothing away over the 2 day course. This is a coveted qualification as you can then run and manage your own school and down train other instructors. It is also the stepping stone to being a Direct Access instructor.
Direct Access (DAS)
This is an upgrade to instruct students on larger machines. It is a half day assessment back at Cardington. There are scenarios to learn and practice for this test.
I looked at a job doing this recently, still in two minds, like the idea but like all these things, doing it for work everyday is normally a different thing…
