On Road 4×4 training for essential workers and response drivers

All of our 4×4 trainers are also DVSA Approved Driving Instructors, as well as having extensive experience in designing bespoke courses for companies, organisations and emergency response services who require their drivers to be able to handle 4×4 capable vehicles on the road in floods, snow, ice, extreme and winter environments.

From basic familiarisation courses for essential workers expected to use their vehicles in winter conditions on-road, to preparation for work in extreme environments across the world, we have run courses for the NHS, military, NGOs and utility companies.

One day courses for up to two candidates can be run from your premises, using your vehicles from £500/day.
