The Academy of Road safety is a registered training organisation delivering TLI41218 - Certificate IV in Transport and Logistics (Road Transport - Car Driving Instruction). We cater to people with all kinds of interests - whether you're looking to upskill, change careers or want more out of your current job - we have exactly what you need!

This course is implemented through a blended delivery system. It involves the completion of the following components:

ONLINE / THEORY

Our online training modules will be completed through our student portal . You will be able to access all 12 of our theory modules and additional auxiliary study materials that will support you in the completion of your course. We have designed this course to be accessible to our students from anywhere at any time, so that you can truly learn at your own pace and convenience. 

PRACTICAL / IN-PERSON

One of our accredited and experienced trainers will be assigned to you and will help you through the Practical Course - which will be conducted on-road in an area closest to your house. The practical component is made up of one-on-one training (or sometimes group training)plus the assessment. If any of the assessments are failed then additional sessions will be required. The more work you put in the fewer hours you will need with your trainer.  

This course structure allows you the choice to spend as little or as much time as you like in completion - that way you can make time for other commitments in your life!
