What is BORDA?
The British Off Road Driving Association (BORDA) sets standards for professional off-road driver training in the UK. Accredited providers deliver courses for recreational drivers, fleet operators and specialists working with all-terrain vehicles on challenging ground.
Awards progress from foundation skills through Standard and Higher levels, covering vehicle control, route planning, environmental impact and recovery. BORDA also recognises ATV-specific training for riders using quad bikes and similar machines in agricultural, estate and adventure settings.

Choosing a course
Standard Level suits drivers who want confident 4x4 skills for work or leisure on varied terrain. ATV training is specific to quad bikes and requires a different licence and risk profile; book the course that matches the machine you will use.
Some courses use centre vehicles; others expect you to bring a suitable 4x4. Check licence requirements, maximum group size and whether the day is training or assessment only. Leave a comment when you book if you need BORDA certification for an employer or land access agreement.
Official standards
