Become a driving instructor.
Join our small team and become your own boss.
Training to become a driving instructor may not be as difficult as you think! With 3 main steps, you could achieve financial freedom, whilst being your own boss, with the support from a small, dedicated team who are driven to keep the roads safe.
Why us?
I’m Tom, owner of CDT.
‘Complete Driving Tuition’ has been established in Market Harborough for around 6 years, prior to that I managed one of the UK’s leading nationwide driving schools which is where I booked my training and became a driving instructor over a decade ago. After 4 years of being ‘just another instructor’ in a large pool of other instructors I began to feel unsupported and grew bored of having to do all the background work whilst paying over the odds for my weekly franchise fee.
This is where I decided to make a change!
I bought my own car, started to source my own pupils and created my own company (CDT), and never looked back.
Some of the things I truly love is the independence the job comes with, whilst being able to choose when and where I worked, how much I work for and when I have a holiday!..
After a while I managed to carry out a long lived dream of mine and managed to convince my best friend to join the team. Alex (pictured to the left after passing his part 3 ADI test, first time I might add!) went through all of his training with ourselves, passing his theory test (part 1), practical test (part 2), and instructional test (part 3) all on his first attempt, which is an incredible achievement!
Since Alex has been keeping extremely busy whilst representing the Rugby (Warwickshire) branch of the business, whilst earning good money, having whatever time off he wants, getting great feedback from all of his pupils, whilst receiving around the clock support from myself.
For me, I love the thought that I’ve been able to help my friend work towards financial freedom, giving him a career to develop in - that he loves, whilst watching him grow as an instructor and mentor.. and now it’s time to do it all again!

If you follow this link you’ll find out all the information you need on becoming a driving instructor but here are the main points.
You need to be 21 or over, holding your full license for over 3 years. No bans or disqualifications within 4 years, under 5 penalty points, and you must be able to pass a DBS check.
Once your DBS is complete, we can get your theory test underway, where we can help, monitor and prepare you via our free online training.
Next up is your practical driving test where you’ll be examined by a third party examiner, passing this means scoring less than 6 faults throughout the drive.
And finally, your third test, the instructional ability test, where an examiner will watch you teach a lesson to a real-life pupil for 1 hour.
Once completed, you’ll be a fully qualified driving instructor.
Of course, you’ll have more questions, but if you’re interested in becoming an instructor and joining our team, fill out the adjacent form and we’ll get in touch soon.
