The IAM course costs £139.00 ( it's just gone up to this) it includes all the training to pass the test, welcome pack, ie the book on how to pass. Once you have joined the Iam you have a year to pass your test, otherwise it costs another £139 to rejoin, the test cost is also included, once passed there is a fee to stay as a member. I'd contact your local group and ask them if you can have an assessment ride.

I have posted several times on this and will reiterate my problems with this

ridesafebacksafe is run by the same people who run the council. don't be conned they are in it to make money out of bikers. I am glad they are now partnering the IAM and advising their course as when I enquired the course cost a lot more than the IAM and was not a recognised qualification unlike RoSPA or IAM etc.

Personally I would say join an IAM group and do not get involved with this organisation
