What’s in the survey

The survey includes questions to help DVSA and ADI associations to understand more about:

• your business – including things like lesson prices and the type of car you teach in
• managing your business – including things like how many pupils you’re teaching and any challenges you’re facing
• your work – including things like how satisfying you find the job
• your skills and the resources available to you – including things like the support you get from DVSA
• your continuing professional development
• your health and wellbeing

The survey does not ask for your name or ADI number. It’s anonymous and individual responses will not be shared or published.

The survey takes 10 to 20 minutes to fill in. It closes at 11:59pm on 30 September 2024.
