Exclusive DIA + TTC Partnership

Professional support, recognised training and protection for TTC Trainers

TTC has partnered with the Driving Instructors Association (DIA) to provide trainers with recognised training, ongoing support and the level of protection expected when delivering road safety programmes.

DIA Membership for TTC Trainers

Meet expectations. Stay protected. Deliver with confidence.

As a TTC Trainer, holding Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance is a requirement to deliver training.

If your cover isn’t strong enough, you carry the risk yourself. If a claim goes beyond your policy, the liability is yours.

Join the DIA and make sure you’re properly protected

£25 million Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance – the highest level of combined cover offered by any Driver Trainer association
Exceeds TTC insurance requirements, helping ensure you remain compliant and fully protected
Many other providers offer significantly lower cover, typically around £10m Public Liability and £5m Professional Indemnity
Lower cover can leave you underinsured and personally exposed if a claim exceeds your policy limits
Access to the DIA advisory helpline and expert guidance
Support with DVSA-related queries and professional issues
Discounts on CPD, training and business services
Member-only resources, updates and industry insight
