The cost of becoming a driving instructor depends on how much training you need, the stage of the ADI qualification process you're currently at and whether you choose a complete training package or pay for training as you progress.
At Aceway, we offer both pay-as-you-go instructor training at £45 p/h and a complete £1,990 training package up to your pink badge and sponsoring you to join our team and start earning , allowing you to choose the approach that best suits your circumstances.
You don't necessarily need to start from the beginning. If you've already passed ADI Part 1 or Part 2, or you're currently a PDI preparing for Part 3, we can assess where you are and help you choose the appropriate training.
This page explains our current training prices, what's included and the additional costs you should consider when budgeting to become an Approved Driving Instructor.

Our complete training package provides structured training and support through all three stages of the ADI qualification process.
Included:
✓ ADI Part 1 — Online theory and hazard perception training/resources
✓ ADI Part 2 — 12 hours of one-to-one driving ability training
✓ ADI Part 3 — 40 hours of instructor training and coaching
✓ PDI Trainee Licence Preparation & Support — for eligible trainees who choose this route
✓ One-to-One Trainer Support throughout your development
✓ Training led by an ORDIT-registered instructor trainer

The amount of training you need will depend on your current ability, previous experience and the stage of the ADI qualification you're preparing for.
We can discuss where you are in your journey before recommending an appropriate training plan.
Even if you're already a fully qualified ADI and need support preparing for your Standards Check or developing your instructional skills, we're here to help.
If you'd prefer not to pay for the complete package in one payment, an instalment option is also available.
2 payments of £1,100
Total payable: £2,200
The £1,990 special-offer price applies to the discounted package payment option shown above. Choosing the instalment plan results in a higher total cost of £2,200.

Your Aceway training fee is not the only cost involved in qualifying as an Approved Driving Instructor. There are also fees paid separately as part of the DVSA qualification and registration process.
Depending on the route you take, these can include:
✓ Criminal record check
✓ ADI Part 1 test fee
✓ ADI Part 2 test fee
✓ ADI Part 3 test fee
✓ Optional PDI trainee licence fee, if you use this route
✓ ADI registration fee after qualifying
These fees are not included in the Aceway training package unless specifically stated otherwise and may change, so always check the current GOV.UK fees before applying.
Included in your Aceway training package:
✓ ADI Part 1 online training/resources
✓ 12 hours of ADI Part 2 training
✓ 40 hours of ADI Part 3 instructor training and coaching
✓ PDI trainee licence preparation and support for eligible trainees
✓ One-to-one trainer support throughout your development
✓ Training led by an ORDIT-registered instructor trainer
Paid separately by you:
✓ Criminal record check
✓ ADI Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 test fees
✓ PDI trainee licence fee if you choose that route
✓ ADI registration fee after qualification
✓ Any additional training required beyond what is included in your package
We want you to understand the likely costs before committing, so we'll explain what's included in your chosen training option and what you'll need to pay separately.
Both options provide access to Aceway instructor training. The best choice depends on where you are in the ADI qualification process and how much support you expect to need.
The Complete Package may suit you if:
✓ You're starting your ADI journey from the beginning
✓ You want structured support through Parts 1, 2 and 3
✓ You expect to use the full amount of training included
✓ You may want support with the PDI trainee licence route
Pay-As-You-Go may suit you if:
✓ You've already completed part of the qualification process
✓ You only need help preparing for a particular ADI test
✓ You want to pay for training as you need it
✓ You're an existing PDI or ADI looking for specific development
