Masters
the ultimate challenge for civilian riders
Open to all current IAM members, our Masters programme provides true one-to-one mentoring support and guidance that will help you to attain the highest standard of civilian driving or riding ability in the country.
Building on your skills as an existing advanced road user, the Masters programme will help to enhance and develop your ability even further in the following areas:
applying cornering principles
Assessing, planning and executing safe overtaking manoeuvres
Recognising opportunities to make safe progress (within the speed limits)
Improving observation, anticipation and awareness consistent with vehicle speed
Applying sound judgement of speed and distance
Once you and your mentor feel that you are ready, we will offer you a ninety minute test that includes both a theory session and an extended drive or ride. To challenge you the Masters test will be conducted on roads unfamiliar to you, and may therefore involve travelling a fair distance from where you live. You will be scored on a series of criteria and able to achieve either a Pass or a Distinction award.
