The program polishes an individual’s bike riding skills by conducting discussion-based and on-site learning sessions. The applicants are instructed about the legal requirements that involve the licence, traffic rules, and highway codes. Followed by a practical learning session in which applicants are taught about the controls and how they work. The program concludes by conducting an on road assessment in which a candidate’s bike riding skills are evaluated by professional instructors. In the final stage, candidates are supposed to implement all the acquired knowledge physically.

The CBT certificates are issued to the applicants only if they pass the trainers’ criteria for being a motorbiker. So if you are willing to enroll in this program here, is what you need to know:

Legal requirements, information about, proper equipment, and apparel is the brief outline of Element A. Element B and C are based on practical riding lessons that include basic understanding regarding motor controls, switching of gears, and their working mechanism. Understanding regarding appropriate speed, weather conditions, first aid, and the rest are the main components of element D. Information acquired from all the elements are implemented physically in element E which is the final stage.

Typically four hours are allotted for the entire training program however the time limit may vary depending on the individual’s capabilities.
