CBT Courses

CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) was introduced in 1990
to help reduce the high accident rate for
motorcycles. Anyone who wants to ride a motorbike on
the road must first complete a CBT course. The only
exception to this is if you had passed your car
practical test before 1st February 2001, then you
are allowed to ride a moped only without completing
a CBT course. |
The
CBT course must be carried out by a DSA approved
instructor and will last from 4 - 6 hours depending on
how you progress through the course, once the course is
completed your CBT certificate will be valid for 2
years, in which time you must pass your practical test
or retake another CBT course after that time.
There
are 5 elements to the CBT course:
Element A (Introduction)
Element B (Practical on-site Training)
Element C (Practical on-site Riding)
Element D (Practical on-road Training)
Element E (Practical on-road Riding)
Each
of the above elements must be completed before you can
move on to the next part of the course. As all students
learn at different speeds you may have to spend more
time on one element before moving on to the next.
When
all parts of the course has been completed and your
instructor feels that you have reached the required
standard you will be issued with your CBT certificate
