Services

EDT Lessons

Essential Driver Training (EDT) consists of 12 mandatory lessons for learner drivers, covering fundamental driving skills. It ensures new drivers gain experience, confidence, and road safety knowledge before applying for their full driving test.

Reduced EDT Lessons

The reduced EDT program allows eligible foreign license holders to complete just six driving lessons instead of 12. It helps experienced drivers from certain countries transition smoothly to Irish driving standards before taking the driving test.

Pre-Test Coaching

A pre-test driving coaching session helps learners identify and correct mistakes, familiarise themselves with the test route, and build confidence. It improves driving skills, increases chances of passing the test, and reduces anxiety on exam day.
