At JESCO your refresher course is not just about making sure you comply with the law by taking a four-hour course at an approved driver training school. JESCO promises you a worthwhile version of this compulsory course, because we believe that nothing is more important than driving safely. We will take your early driving experience to the next level. After this training course, you will be more aware and better armed against possible dangers on the road. The JESCO Auto Training School’s accreditation number is SCOJE T4.
Since 2017, an additional four-hour training course has been compulsory for every new driver who obtains a B driving licence. This training course is called a refresher course and must be taken at a training centre approved by the government for this purpose. You take the course at the earliest six months after obtaining your B driving licence and at the latest nine months after that date. Usually, you will receive a letter from the Flemish government inviting you to take the course, but it is better to check your citizen profile to see when you have to take the refresher course. www.mow-contact.be
