This official SA AIA curriculum outlines the full training structure for operating four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles in off-road conditions.

It defines the three progressive course levels — Introduction, Basic, and Advanced Techniques — and sets out the learning outcomes, modules, assessment methods, required training delivery, course duration, and critical cross-field competencies expected of accredited instructors and Skills Development Partners (SDPs).

This curriculum ensures that all 4WD training in South Africa follows a consistent, credible, and nationally aligned standard.

Ideal for instructors, training providers, assessors, overlanding operators, and organisations seeking recognised 4WD training pathways.
