Motorcycle Instructor Training

We only train Instructors who would like to work for ART in Copthorne *. However if you live outside of Sussex & Surrey this course is ideal to give you a very realistic look at what is involved. It is very much a "hands on" day covering all aspects from legal requirements, customers service to basic maintenance.
A passion for all things motorcycle and the freedom & commitment to work at least 24 days (Saturdays, Sundays & Bank Holidays) per calendar year are required if you would like to work for ART. Initial training/qualification is a minimum of 30 days per year for the first 3 years. We do not charge for training you, but instead ask for a solid commitment and we train you for free!

Our instructor training is done over a period to suit both your schedule and individual needs. Be very wary of any companies or training schools that want to charge you money up front to "train" you as an instructor, the first question to ask is "will there be a job available at the end of the course?".

• Do you think you have what it takes to become a top quality Motorcycle Instructor?
• Do you want to train and work with one of the the most established & qualified ATB's in the U.K?
• For full details please get in touch and we will send you all of the relevant information.

If you need any further information then please send an email first, along with your CV and a covering letter of why you would like to be a motorcycle instructor. The next course date is Sunday April 28th 2024. Please click the Book M/C Trainer button to secure your place online.
