The course covers road law, performing cabin checks, performing pre-drive safety inspections, starting and stopping sequences, reversing and manoeuvring, vehicle positioning, gears and their uses, and the system of vehicle control. Training includes VicRoads-mandated theory, off-road practical assessments, and on-road practical (driving) assessments to ensure comprehensive preparation for licence acquisition.
