Q-Ride registered service providers
Q-Ride registered service providers
Q-Ride registered service providers' focus is to improve the quality of motorcycle learner rider training, boost education and awareness and enhance road safety. Only Q-Ride registered service providers can deliver the Q-Ride training curriculum to learner motorcycle riders. If the Q-Ride registered service provider is not an accredited rider trainer, they must employ (or otherwise engage) a person who is an accredited rider trainer to deliver the Q-Ride training curriculum.
