## Resource

The very first Instructor Boardroom brings together a panel of familiar voices from across the industry to tackle the big questions facing driving instructors today. Terry Cook is joined by Tom Stenson, Andy MacFarlane, Laura Joyce, Ray Seagrave, Emma Cottington, Chris Bensted and Dan Hill for a wide-ranging discussion shaped by real questions from instructors. From the changing demand for manual and automatic lessons, to the challenges of pricing, test availability and supporting PDIs, the group share their honest experiences from different parts of the country. They also explore how instructors can stand out in a crowded market, the importance of ongoing CPD, and why investing in yourself is the key to long-term success. Packed with practical insights and frank opinions, this opening Boardroom session offers plenty of food for thought for anyone working in driver training. 🔥 Get More Than Just Test Passes - Join the Premium Membership If you're a driving instructor who wants to teach better, earn more, and stand out from the crowd, the Premium membership is where it happens.
