If you meet these
requirements you must apply and supply character references with your

least 85% overall and a minimum of 80% in 4 different sections.
If you pass this
test you are allowed to go onto Test 2 which is your Driving Ability Test.
This test lasts approximately 1 hour and requires you to make a maximum
of 6 minor driving faults.
If you pass this test
you are allowed to continue on to the final test which is your Instructional
Ability Test. This test comprises of a supervising examiner emulating
a learner driver in both the novice or partly trained stage (phase 1)
and that of a trained driver. If you pass this test you are invited to
join the DSA ADI register.
When qualified you
are required to maintain a minimum standard and are required to present
yourself for continued ability check tests whenever the supervising examiner
(ADI) requires you to do so.
You must also maintain
your eligibility status as required to become included in the ADI register.
If you pass your check test you will be graded between 4 and 6 (6 being
the highest) and required to renew your registration every 4 years.
