RAP offers Learner Driver Licence courses throughout the year.

Support to gain the Learner Driver Licence

We offer a 3-week course, with two sessions each week. Each session lasts for two and a half hours.

The test for the Learner Licence usually takes place during session six at the local AA office or vehicle testing station. You sit the test when you are ready.

The course is free and you will learn by:

• listening to the tutor, and asking the tutor questions;

• reading the Road Code;

• watching and discussing videos; and

• practising for the test using resources in the room as well as online.

RAP sometimes offers a one-day workshop from 9.00 am – 3.00 pm, although this does not include the test. The test takes place on another day.

Rānui Action Project offers opportunities to local residents who are keen to gain their Restricted or Full Driver Licence.

• If you have your Learner Licence – even if you’ve had it for ages but just haven’t had the chance to take the next step; and

• you have practical driving experience; and

• you live locally,

Support to gain the Restricted or Full Driver’s Licence
