Certified Instructors
Certification of the instructors has to be on a (uniform) federal basis; perhaps under the auspices of the
ATSB (Australian Transport Safety Bureau) working together with State Authorities. Setting the
standards nationally (or even internationally through e.g. UN/ECE) from the outset obviates the need to
normalize different sets of laws and regulations.
CI performance is to be evaluated continuously, based on the performance of their graduates. The highest
penalty for failing in their obligations (save from criminal fraud by knowingly graduating the
incompetent) would be a permanent ban on them being a driving instructor; certified or otherwise.
Although in a competency-based scheme, there would be no need for the final test, there is a background
of testing by road authorities. Least of all to keep them comfortable and as the primary quality control on
the CI.
In terms of what fees a CI could charge; Certified instructors would be the only way to gain (or regain!) a
licence. The opportunity for CI in rural areas to provide weekend workshops and instruction for urbanites
can usefully augment what could otherwise be a meagre income.
