EDT Lessons in Limerick

What is EDT?

EDT stands for Essential Driver Training. It’s a course of 12 mandatory lessons that every learner driver in Ireland must complete before taking their driving test.

The RSA introduced EDT to make sure new drivers have proper, structured training before hitting the roads solo. Each lesson covers a specific skill, building up from the basics to more complex driving situations.


The 12 EDT Lessons

Lesson 1: Car controls and safety checksLesson 2: Correct positioning 1
Lesson 3: Changing direction 1Lesson 4: Progression management – speed and gears
Lesson 5: Correct positioning 2 (More complex situations)Lesson 6: Anticipation and reaction
Lesson 7: Sharing the road – pedestrians, cyclists, other vehiclesLesson 8: Driving safely through traffic
Lesson 9: Changing direction 2 (More complex situations)Lesson 10: Speed management
Lesson 11: Driving calmlyLesson 12: Night driving

How It Works

Each lesson is logged in your official RSA logbook. I’ll sign off each one as you complete it. You need all 12 signed off before you can sit your test.

Lessons are minimum 1 hour each that I will bespoke to suit your individual requirements.


Sponsor Lessons

Already have some experience? A family member been teaching you?

If you have a sponsor (someone who supervises your practice driving), I can do Sponsor Lessons. These count towards your EDT and help fill any gaps in your training.
