Continuing Professional Development Courses

As a DSA ADI (car) you should already be aware that CPD is going to be introduced on a voluntary basis in the spring of the year 2008, before it eventually becomes compulsory at a later date. You may or may not be aware that when CPD does become mandatory, every ADI on the Register of Approved Driving Instructors, will be required to take one days training (7 hours) every year during their four year period of registration.

In my capacity as the CPD Trainer for the Driving Instructors Scottish Council, and have attended and have been involved in all of the CPD seminars and workshops set up by DSA and the various consultants during the past three years.


At present I am a member of the DSA CPD working group, within the DSA CPD steering group, and I am therefore heavily involved in the preparations for this introduction.

As I live and operate within Scotland, I can only offer sincere apologies to those of you living elsewhere in the United Kingdom, as unfortunately due to geographical reasons, I am only able to provide CPD training courses within Scotland. However, I can provide the actual written handouts on the various subjects, which will be issued to all ADI’s attending these courses, these can be ordered on this site and will be dispatched by post.

These CPD courses can be arranged locally throughout Scotland. Provided that there is sufficient demand, I will make arrangements to travel to any location, which is suitable and convenient to the majority of ADI’s who wish to attend within your local area.
At present you will have a choice of 19 subjects available, with the subjects chosen for the seven hour training session, being selected by popular demand, based on your personal requests.

A full list of the current subject headings available can be viewed here.
