Learn about being a safer driver in just one day with the AAMI approved driver training program.
Did you know that 39% of young drivers we recently surveyed* admit to sending or reading a text message while driving? And over half of these drivers felt young people don't get adequate driver training before they get their licence and 84% believe it should be compulsory to do a safe driving course?
That's where we can help. Our AAMI approved driver training program provides a one day driving course designed to arm young drivers who are under 25 years of age with safe driving techniques and a better understanding of what it takes to be safe on the road.
The course is open to all AAMI customers who hold an AAMI Comprehensive Car policy (purchased or renewed on 19 June 2018 or after) and hold a P-Plate or full license, at a cost to you, and if:
Then you, your child or grandchild are eligible to undertake the course at a cost to you and on completion you are eligible to receive up to a 10% discount on your AAMI Comprehensive Car Insurance rated premium, until the first renewal on or after the participant turns 25 as long as the participant remains a listed driver. The discount does not apply to the portion of the rated premium relating to AAMI Roadside Assist, if you have purchased that option. Ask us for details of approved providers. AAMI does not pay for the course.

Unfortunately you can't do the course just yet
Yes, you can still do the course, at a cost to you, as long as you have either a P-Plate or full driving licence.
Bear in mind that the course is designed to address common issues for young drivers and so the course content focuses on drivers under 25.
If you’re not an AAMI Comprehensive Car Insurance customer you can still do the course at a cost to you. And if after completing the course you purchase a a AAMI Comprehensive Car Insurance Policy (your Policy), you’ll be eligible for a discount on your Policy’s rated premium, until the first renewal on or after you turn 25 as long as you remain a listed driver. This is just a summary. For full details about what is and isn't covered, please read your Policy. It's dry, we know, but it's essential reading.

The courses are conducted by Murcotts Driving Excellence. The trainers hold all necessary qualifications relevant for the state in which the course is conducted.
All courses are conducted in a controlled environment, under strict supervision and by experienced trainers. A trainer can decide if your vehicle is unsuitable to do the practical exams.
We recommend you bring the car you usually drive. It doesn't have to be the car insured by AAMI, as long as it is registered.
Due to safety concerns spectators are not permitted.
The trainer needs proof on the day that you have a current drivers licence.
Come rain or shine, the AAMI Skilled Drivers Course will go ahead.
Please remove all loose items from the interior and exterior before you arrive.
Once you complete the AAMI Skilled Drivers Course, the related Comprehensive Car Insurance policy holder – whether it be you, your parent or grandparent – gets a discount on their rated premium.
The discount is applied until the first renewal on or after the participant turns 25 as long as the participant remains a listed driver. The discount does not apply to the portion of the rated premium relating to AAMI Roadside Assist, if you have purchased that option.
Yes, as long as you're under 25 and a listed as a driver on their policy.
If you and your parents have separate policies, then only the Skilled Driver participant (you) who is under 25 will be eligible for the discount.
You'll receive the discount on the unexpired portion of your rated premium for the remaining period of insurance, as a refund. In subsequent years, the discount will be recognised when you renew, so long as the eligible Skilled Driver participant is still under 25 years of age at renewal and is a listed driver on the policy.
In 45 odd years since the birth of AAMI, we've helped get people back on the road after literally millions of accidents.
From scrapes and dings to fender benders, embarrassing errors in reversing to the more serious of accidents, we've seen them all.
That's why we put safety at the centre of everything we do.
