The hour course, Helping Learner Drivers Become Safer Drivers, will offer hands-on advice on how to provide effective driving practice for learner drivers.
"Rules for learner drivers have changed over the years so it is important to keep up to date before starting out to teach your Learner," said Orange and Cabonne Road Safety Officer Andrea Hamilton-Vaughan.
"A more rigorous driving test has also been introduced, focusing on hazard perception and driver reactions.
"These changes to the Graduated Licensing Scheme are all about reducing the crash rate for young drivers."
The course will cover topics such as: new laws for learner and P-plate drivers, how to use the new Learner Driver Log Book and how to plan on-road driving lessons.
To book for the 7pm course call Ms Hamilton-Vaughan on 6393 8600.
