What does ORDIT mean?
ORDIT stands for the Official Register of Driving Instructor Trainers.
Why choose an ORDIT trainer?
ORDIT was established by the DVSA to help people wanting to become an instructor or make a better, educated choice of trainer and avoid wasting money on substandard training.
There are many instructors out there offering driving instructor training, however, many aren’t ORDIT registered. The DVSA published 41,633 active driving instructors in the UK, of which approximately only 500 are ORDIT registered.
In order to be ORDIT registered, you must pass several inspections and have your training documents reviewed – including terms and conditions, refund policy, complaints procedure etc.
A trainer registered to the establishment should also pass a practical driver training inspection to ensure the quality of the training provided is satisfactory.
Why aren’t there more instructor trainers on the ORDIT register?
If the register was free and didn’t require any effort or quality training standards then more trainers would obviously apply to be on it.
Many instructors don’t want to take the initial test and have ongoing inspections every 2 years. What does that say about the trainer or organisation?
Any instructor trainer that is serious about the industry and wants to provide the best possible standards should want to be on the ORDIT register. This way they can differentiate themselves from the 41,633 instructors across the UK.
Unlike the national driving schools, our trainers are Grade A DVSA ADI’s and GRADE A DVSA ORDIT TRAINERS. They also have Advanced Driving Qualifications.
If you are looking to become an instructor, always ask the trainer or training establishment in question if they are ORDIT registered.
