Welcome Welcome to the ADINJC & Intelligent Instructor National Conference & Expo '24 in association with AcciDON'T Driving School. We are delighted that you've found time in your busy diaries to attend, and we hope you enjoy the action-packed day we've lined up for you.

Firstly, we'd like to thank our headline sponsor, AcciDON'T Driving School, and our Gold sponsor, Pass N Go Driving School. Their support means we can provide a freeto-attend event on such a grand scale, so please go and chat with their friendly teams.

Today, there are 24 different seminars running, so please check out the full program in the brochure to make the most of our day. We have moved The Live Stage to its very own building, the Sheldon Building, across the way. Simply head out of the main entrance and turn left towards the EV display. We have a great speaker line-up with increased capacity, too.

The Lou Walsh PDI Zone, in association with FBTC Accountancy Services, has some of the industry's best trainers, offering valuable insights for those new to the industry. In Seminar Room 2, we have an eclectic mix of presentations that cater to a variety of interests and needs. From road safety to business advice, from dealing with mental health challenges to coping with students with special educational needs, there's something for everyone.

Over 50 industry suppliers are in our expanded expo area, all keen to talk to you about their tailored solutions to help make your business more efficient. Many have exclusive offers, deals, freebies, and prize draws running today, so do take time to go and speak to them. You can even win fantastic prizes by posting a hot lap on Pass N Go Driving School's fabulous driving simulator or on Drive.Day's giant Scalextric track.

We've really pushed the boat out in our outdoor activity area this year. AcciDON'T has provided three HGVs, so be sure to try out their reversing challenge. There's also a tyre pressure wheelbarrow challenge and a memorable VR road safety experience.

You can test drive some of the 25 EVs in our display and chat with our specially adapted vehicle providers, too.

We are truly grateful for your efforts in attending today's event and hope you have a productive and enjoyable day. Thank you from all at the ADINJC and Intelligent Instructor for participating in this unique event.

Welcome from our headline sponsor

Welcome to the ADINJC & Intelligent Instructor National Conference & Expo ‘24.

For the second year in a row, AcciDON’T is delighted to be the headline sponsor of this year’s conference.

I started AcciDON’T in 1999 and since then, the company has delivered more than 45,000 intensive driving courses. Typically, each year we teach more than 4,500 soldiers, sailors and those in the air force to drive. We employ eight full-time staff and over 100 self-employed instructors. Quite possibly, the largest driving school you might have never heard of!

AcciDON’T is one of a small number of specialised companies delivering licence acquisition training to the armed forces, and more recently civilians. Using a substantial team of instructors and a bespoke, web-based management system, we deliver ‘on demand’ training at a multitude of locations throughout the country.

There well be a location near you.

Our MoD experience in delivering intensive driving courses, positions us perfectly to transfer this knowledge to the retail market. Intensive teaching has its own challenges and is not for everybody, but it does allow instructors more freedom with their diaries. If you would like to work with us, please do come and have a chat with myself, or any of our staff on the stand today.

Although car driver training is the mainstay of our contracts, a small proportion is in larger vehicles including Cat C+E and Cat D. For those of you wishing to ‘have a go’ at driving a full- size articulated lorry, please visit our stand at the front of the hall to arrange this, or pop outside to the outdoor activity area. You can’t miss us!

Following the popularity of this last year, we have three vehicles available.

We hope that you enjoy the day.
