You can acquire knowledge and skills in one of these systems:
Standard System - this is usually a standard pace of study of about 2 months and 20-30 hours of driving with an instructor. In this system, it is good if you have support from people who can practice driving and manoeuvres with you regularly - at least 2-3 times a week for a minimum of 30 minutes. It is also a good system for those who have the skills and have some time to remind themselves of the correct driving rules before the test without rushing.
Accelerated System - this is usually a driving course covering up to 4 weeks. Driver candidates take driving lessons on a 2-3 lessons per week basis. For beginners who feel comfortable behind the wheel, "feel the ride" and want to acquire the necessary skills as quickly as possible with plenty of support from others opt for 20-25 hours.
Extended system - this style of learning is designed primarily for those who want to learn all the ins and outs of driving without rushing, at their own pace, and consolidate them well. It usually takes 8-12 weeks to learn. This system is primarily for those who base their learning primarily on lessons with an instructor. There is little or no external support from their family, friends or acquaintances. All those who need systematic learning and progress will find themselves in this system. Learning in this system involves 35-50 hours of driving.
Open System - you and the instructor decide after each six-hour panel whether to continue learning through the next panel; usually the panel is completed within 1-2 weeks; you pre-book and make prepayment for every panel.
In this system, we do not assume a date for the end of training or the number of hours of driving. It all depends on how the learning progresses. This system is convenient especially for those who work according to changing shifts or for those who get their work schedule from week to week.
Mixed System - is one of the more popular learning systems. Most often, students choose the "Accelerate System" and then buy lesson panels /6 hours of driving/ or additional hours depending on ability and time. Here, too, we do not assume an end date for the course.
Per Hour System - we adjust the number of hours and dates of meetings depending on your possibilities. This system is used by those who would like to recall the rules after a long break before the exam or those who are repeating the exam. It is also of interest to people who have lost their driver's license and want to get an idea of their options for taking the practical test.
