تفاصيل الدورة

The Learning Curve Institute offers a thorough 2 day drink driving education course for convicted drink drivers and research in the area has shown that education and awareness courses of this nature reduce repeat offending and therefore lead to a safer environment on our roads and less road deaths as a result of drink driving.

PROGRAMME CERTIFICATION

Attendees will receive a certificate of attendance entitled "Drink Driver Education Course" from The Learning Curve Institute.

PROGRAMME AIMS

The aims of the drink driver education course are:

• to enable participants to gain an understanding of the issues of drinking alcohol and driving. This information will assist the learners in making informed, positive future choices.
• to explain the impact of new legislation
• to outline the process involved in being arrested with a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol, and the possible consequences of this happening.

• to demonstrate to attendees the effect drink driving can have on the families of victims
• to give attendees details on how to apply for their license back and how to appeal for a reduction in sentence

PROGRAMME CONTENT

Throughout the course learners will have the opportunity to explore the above learning outcomes through presentations, group work and scenarios. They will also be given a forum to discuss the various topics raised within the sessions and every student will receive a copy of the presentation given on the day.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
