The DSA along with the motorcycle industry has put together a new package of training
known as the Enhanced Rider Scheme (ERS).
The scheme is benficial to all bike riders who have a full motorcycle licence, no matter of
what size of bike, or the experience level of the rider. There is no test involved and you
may not need to take any training if your skills are assessed as satisfactory.
You will also earn discounts on your insurance as well !
How Does It Work ??
The DSA, in partnership with training experts have developed a training scheme
designed to assess your riding, reduce risk and improve your skills.
There is an ever expanding network of approved trainers across Great Britain ready
and waiting to assess riders and conduct any recommended training.
Here at Dorset & Wessex we are qualified and certified on the DSA website to assess
you in your riding skills.
If you have no significant areas of weakness, the trainer will give you a DSA
Certificate of Competence-Enhanced Rider Bonus. You can then get an insurance
discount from one of the many insurers that have signed up to support the scheme.
If you do have areas that would benefit from further training, you would qualify for
your certificate after successfully completing the recommended training. By having your
riding ability assessed, trainers can tailor a development programme to suit your
needs.
Many of the leading motorcycle insurance companies have signed up to this scheme and are prepared to offer substantial discounts to riders who have shown they can ride to the ERS standard and have received a certificate.
