Fahrlehrerwesen; Beantragung der Anerkennung als Träger von Einweisungslehrgängen für Bewerber für die Seminarerlaubnis Aufbauseminar

If the holder of a driving license has been convicted of a criminal offence or misdemeanour committed during the probationary period and a final decision has been issued against them which is to be entered in the driving aptitude register, the driving license authority must order participation in an advanced training seminar if a serious or less serious offence has been committed. If a driving instructor wishes to conduct these advanced seminars, he or she requires a seminar permit for advanced seminars. In order to be granted a seminar permit for an advanced seminar, a driving instructor must, among other things, take part in an instruction course comprising a four-day basic course and a four-day program-specific course.

The providers of these courses must be recognized by the responsible government.
