National Rider Risk Awareness Course (NRRAC)
Helping riders get to grips with safety
Motorcycle and moped riders are among the most vulnerable of all road users and it can be too easy to forget the risks.
The National Rider Risk Awareness Course (NRRAC) is for riders whose on road behaviour could be described as thrill-seeking, anti-social or careless, but who police believe would respond well to education.
Using a range of engaging, non-judgemental modules, specially adapted to the two-wheel experience, TTC’s expert trainers help motorcyclists challenge their assumptions and change risky behaviours.
The NRRAC course is part of the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme, NDORS, which is licensed by UKROEd. It is a behavioural change course for those who have committed an offence whilst riding a powered two-wheeler, and who have been diverted from court by the police through the issuing of a Conditional Offer Fixed Penalty Notice (COFPN).

Key learning points
The course is designed for the highly specific motivations and behaviours of people who ride motorcycles or mopeds, whether that’s for fun or work.
We work with riders to help them understand the consequences of reckless, careless or anti-social riding with a range of informative and interesting exercises to drive home the unique risks they face.
Our expert trainers encourage riders to question their own assumptions about competency, identify the potential consequences of risky on-road behaviour and demonstrate knowledge of appropriate riding.

Course information
This course is only for people who have been referred by the police to attend a National Rider Risk Awareness Course. You will know if this applies to you because you will have received a letter offering you the course.
Can I change my course booking?
Providing there is sufficient time within the deadline given by the police, you can change your course once you have booked. There may be a rearrangement fee for changing your course, which is outlined in our course terms and conditions . Amend your booking using the same UKROEd portal as you used to book your original course.
The format of the National Rider Risk Awareness Course
The course is a relaxed and informative interactive workshop facilitated by a licensed NDORS (National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme) trainer. There is no police involvement. There’s no riding involved, and you won’t take a test which you can pass or fail. We only ask that you engage fully with the course content and stay until the end. As it is theory-only, it is carried out online via your own compatible device, such as a tablet or computer.
Original photo ID
You must also show a photo ID in order to attend the course. This must be an original physical document like a passport or a driving licence. This is so that the trainer can register your attendance properly.
If you do not have photo ID, please speak to the police force who referred you to the course, prior to your course date.
Check the terms and conditions on our resources page for more details.
Bringing an interpreter
The course is only available in English and Welsh languages. If you think your English language skills might restrict your ability to complete the course, or affect your experience, we recommend you make arrangements for an interpreter to help you. Although it is your responsibility to do this, we will need to know who this person is as they will also need to provide ID. They need to be at least 16 years old. Check out our advice page for all the information you need.
