EDT Lessons
What are EDT lessons?
Essential Driver Training (EDT) lessons are 12, mandatory, 1 hour lessons, that teach learner drivers the fundamental skills needed for driving in Ireland.
If the issue date of your first B category (car) learner permit is on or after 4 April 2011, you must first complete all EDT sessions before applying for your driving test.
Below I have compiled an EDT Learning Guide, covering each of the 12 lessons. Have a look to help prepare you for your lessons, and then use them as a study aid for practice in between our lessons.
