Looking for a career change? Become self-employed and establish your own rewarding business teaching young drivers low risk driving skills.

• Peters Driving and Training was established in 1989.
• In 2001 Peters Driving and Training became a Registered Training Organisation and started to operate under PVET Institute.

In the past 24 years our organisation has trained over 1,600 new driving instructors and provided ongoing support to the following:

• NRMA Driving Instructors
• NSW Fire Brigade*
• NSW Police Officers*

We have also trained a number of established driving school’s new driving instructors across NSW.

Our aim is that our students not only obtain their driving instructors licence but that they become professional educators who train and educate young drivers and provide skills for them to become low risk drivers.

A large number of people who join this unique industry create their own business while enjoying the flexibility of choosing their own working hours and providing driving lessons and road safety to our next generation.

PVET Institute provides flexible one-on-one training and can be conducted during the week, morning and afternoons or during the evening and on the weekend. Training is available across all of NSW in a variety of ways to accommodate different client needs. The location of training and assessment will be organised between the student and the trainer. Training can be organised locally in your local area.

PVET Institute understands that students may need a little extra support. If a student does not pass the final assessment on their first attempt, then the second assessment will not incur a fee. Your qualified and professional trainer, as well as our student support, will make studying simple and easy!  Our aim is to provide support according to our student’s individual needs.

Following course completion students can receive ongoing support from their trainer. Students are able to contact their trainer or Student Support for any questions or further info.

PVET Institute has a 95% student course completion rate, with many of our students starting their own business successfully, either as a second income, or full time.

A fulfilling career as a driving instructor is similar to being a school teacher. One operates in a classroom environment, the other within a car. The essential aspect is that they are both educators. The course is designed to develop professional driver trainers with the skills and knowledge to teach learner drivers the necessary skills to become safe low risk drivers.

PVET Institute has trained over 1,600 driving instructor trainees since 2001 that have come from all different working backgrounds such as teachers, paramedics, finance managers, PR Professionals, Top ATO managers and more!

All PVET Institute trainers are experienced driving instructors who have successfully established and are operating their own driving schools. Each trainer holds the TAE40116 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (equivalent or higher) as well as the current TLI41222 Certificate IV in Motor Vehicle Driver Training.

The majority of PVET Institute trainers have delivered training in their previous careers before joining this unique and rewarding industry.

TLI41222 Certificate IV in Motor Vehicle Driver Training is a nationally accredited course governed by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) which requires highly practical face to face on road training.

The course covers the 20 logbook lesson plans which contain 147 elements of knowledge and skills for a learner driver to know in order to obtain a provisional licence. Trainers with PVET Institute have vast experience in training new driving instructors to help students become low risk drivers and reduce road accidents among young drivers.

Each element of the lessons will be presented in the form of explanation, demonstration, practice and assessment which requires face to face and practical training. The course provides you with a qualification that requires mostly face to face sessions and practical learning.

Assignments can be provided online or in hardcopy to accommodate each student’s individual situation. PVET Institute provides students with comprehensive and valuable literature, documents and resources to assist students during the course.

Established in 1989, Peters Driving & Training has the knowledge and skill to guide you to create your own Driving School business. Students looking to start their own driving school will receive an individual learning approach and additional tips and ideas on establishing and building their own successful driving school.
