ADI Qualification Process

The ADI Qualifying Process

There are 3 components to the ADI qualifying process,
  • Part 1 - Theory and Hazard Perception
  • Part 2 - Driving Ability
  • Part 3 - Teaching Ability

:

 Part 1 - Theory and Hazard Perception 

THEORY - There are 25 questions in each of these 4 categories, equally 100 multiple choice questions
  • road procedure
  • traffic signs and signals, car control, pedestrians and mechanical knowledge
  • driving test, disabilities, and the law
  • publications and instructional techniques
A question and several possible answers appear on a screen. You have to select the right answer.

HAZARD PERCEPTION - 
You’ll watch 14 video clips. The clips:
  • feature everyday road scenes
  • contain at least one ‘developing hazard’ - but one of the clips features 2 developing hazards
You get points for spotting the developing hazards as soon as they start to happen.​

Part 2 - Driving Ability

Trainee instructors will have to demonstrate the skills they’ll be teaching to learner drivers. The changes include:
  • driving independently for around 20 minutes (an increase from the current 10 minutes) while following directions from a sat nav or a series of traffic signs
  • doing 2 of 4 possible reversing manoeuvres:
    • parallel park at the side of the road
    • reverse into a parking bay and drive out
    • drive into a parking bay and reverse out
    • pull up on the right-hand side of the road, reverse for around 2 car lengths, and rejoin the traffic
  • answering 2 vehicle safety questions while driving - for example, showing the examiner how they’d use the car’s cruise control

Part 3 Ability to teach

The ADI part 3 test has changed to become a much more realistic assessment of a trainee instructor’s ability to teach a pupil.
In the previous ADI part 3 test, trainee instructors provided training to a driving examiner role-playing the part of a pupil.
Nowadays they give a driving lesson to a real pupil while an examiner assesses their ability to tailor the training to that pupil’s learning goals and needs.
The examiner will:
  • look for evidence that the trainee instructor meets the national standard for driver and rider training
  • mark 17 areas of competence in 3 categories - lesson planning, risk management and teaching and learning skills
  • The ADI part 3 test is in line with the ADI standards check, which every ADI has to take at least once every 4 years to stay qualified.
