Instructor Course Outline

Only certified law enforcement officers can become instructors of this program.

Training goal
This 3½-day course will train you to work with the largest group of at-risk drivers using materials and topics they identify with.

Why should you attend?
Young drivers between the ages of 16 and 24 represent the largest group of problem drivers on the road. Motor vehicle collisions are the number one cause of death for young adults. We need to go beyond basic driver's education and teach critical defensive driving techniques to young drivers once they have received their license and feel confident and "experienced". Providing this additional training is a must in order to make our nation's highways safer now and in the future.

Topics covered in the instructor course include:
how to get students involved in group discussions how to use course materials administrative responsibilities adult learning needs developing effective teaching skills Top six violations of these drivers and how to overcome them Speed and stopping distances Fatigue and what it causes		why young drivers underestimate risk techniques to maintain control in driving situations how to handle peer pressure how to stay "cool" with friends Updated drug information Work zone driving rules Special considerations for special vehicles and much more.
