Eligibility Requirements

Depending on the country/currency of your international licence it may be advised that before you can get your Australian licence you'll need to pass these tests ( which are undertaken at your local Service SA office first):

- Theory Test (Give way diagrams & multiple choice law questions) when you pass the test, a temporary driving permit will be issued for a period of 3 months. You can practice this test online Here
- Hazard Perception Test - you can practice this test here.
- Practical driving test - this test can be done with Accustom Driving School (please keep in mind this practical test needs to be completed before your temporary driving permit expires) once you have completed your practical driving assesment you will then be given a certificate of competency.

Course Outline

- Training & Assessment via one of these methods: VORT & CBT&A
- VORT (Vehicle On Road Test)
VORT = Training lessons with a MDI (Motor Driving Instructor) and when ready attempt a VORT with a Authorised Examiner (Must be a different instructor to which you have trained with).
- Optional - obtain a ‘driving companion’ from Service SA to opt for CBT&A (Competency Based Training & Assessment)
CBT&A = Training & Assessment with a CBT&A Authorised Examiner (stay with same instructor the whole way) - sometimes this method is referred to as 'logbook' training.
