Choose from our courses tailored to teach what you need.

Our courses have been designed to provide you with the skills and confidence to safely tow and reverse your caravan or motorhome.  It is a daunting experience to reverse into your site the first time, but our courses will help with the nerves. It is also our belief that knowing your vehicle combination is legal, roadworthy, packed safely and ready for your next adventure is the most important part of the ‘peace of mind’ for safe driving and holidaying throughout Australia.

To help with this peace of mind we offer various courses which cover all aspects of caravan and motorhome ownership.
