Training for your Theory Test

From 2026, the DVLA are adding CPR and defibrillator (AED) questions to the UK driving theory test, because knowing how to save a life should be as common as knowing the Highway Code.
Our 90-minute Driving Test CPR & Defib Essentials session helps learner drivers feel confident answering these questions, and even more confident if they ever need to use the skills in real life.
Delivered in the fun, hands-on Community Medics style, this short course blends theory and practice, giving you the key knowledge the test expects and the confidence to act safely and effectively at the scene of a medical emergency.
