Successful completion of this course is required for all instructors planning to attend Specialized Driver Instructor Training. The testing required within this course replaces the testing which, in the past, has been done on the first day of the Specialized Driver Instructor Training. Therefore, this course is an extension of Specialized Driver Instructor Training.
