About the Course

This course involves theory and practical components and is completed within one day.

Once completed, you will be issued with your certificates and leave to go to the AA or VTNZ to have it endorsed on your licence. There will be a charge of $44.00 per endorsement for this at the AA or VTNZ. These can be done all together or separately.
