PDIs: Will You Thrive, Just Survive, or Dive?

Will PDIs thrive, just survive, or ultimately leave the industry?

In this recorded Motormouth webinar, we examine the surge in trainee licence applications and what it means for the profession in 2026. With more PDIs entering the market, is there enough pupil demand to sustain them? Is mentoring keeping pace? And are trainees being equipped to build resilient, professional businesses, or simply trained to pass Part 3?

Our panel, Ian Lavell, Fiona Taylor, Lee Jowett and Nicky Harris, share honest insights from mentoring, behavioural science, coaching and driving school management. Hosted by Graham Hooper of the DIA, this session offers practical challenge and clear thinking for PDIs, ADIs and trainers focused on long-term success.
