Starting
Work and the Trainee Licence
Introduction 
The
Trainee Licence Once you have passed the Part
2 exam you will have the option to either start work on what is known as the
Trainee Licence or to wait until you have passed the final Part 3 exam. The
Trainee Licence, or Pink Licence, is valid for 6 months only and allows you to gain experience
with real pupils prior to taking your Part 3 exam. |

Advice
Our advice is
probably to wait as teaching real pupils can often distract you from the way
the Driving Standards Agency are actually looking for you to teach. However, we
will be only too glad to discuss this with you.

Status
As an Approved Driving
Instructor you will almost certainly be self employed. this has it's benefits:
- You are you're own boss, you
work when and where you like.
- Tax advantages
- Flexibility
The down side of things is
that you get:
- No Holiday or Sick Pay
- No Company Pension
We will help you set up as a
Self-Employed Person, we will also put you in direct contact with all of our
instructors, whom we hope will give a positive report of what The Big Red L
Company has done for them.
