Insurance Skills Assessment (ISA)
Quinn Direct and AON/AXA Bikecare have introduced a rider skills assessment which could save you money on your motorcycle insurance as well as improve your rider skills.
Generous discounts are given and vary by the level you achieve in your assessment. This rider skills initiative is not a test but is an assessment of the different skills required to ride a motorcycle safely.
Insurance Discounts
The program has been designed with the assistance of Senior Training Instructors with recognised Motorcycle Safety Organisations. Riders are assessed on their skills and can achieve huge discounts with premium reductions ranging from up to 25% for basic competency right up to 45% for demonstrating expert competency.
The cost of the training program will be offset by the savings made on premiums upon successful completion of the course. Apart from the very real advantage of saving you money, the scheme will also save lives.
Our four-hour training programme will consist of the following:
- A briefing on what is to be expected from the course
- A 'demo' showing how you need to ride in order to pass the assessment
- An observed ride, correction and de-brief
- A 45 minute assessment
- A de-brief, final score and grade
NOTE: Your assessment will only be conducted if the standard you need to achieve has been maintained consistently throughout your training programme.
You then have to pass the 45 minute assessment in order to qualify for a grade.
