First aid
The first aid is a 10 hour course designed to teach you the key points on how to react in the event of an accident.
At the end of the course and after seeing all the right safety techniques, you will be able to provide first aid to a victim of an accident. This course is mandatory for the Swiss driving license process and as well very helpful in case of foreign license exchange.
Once attended, you will be given a certificate. Valid for six years that you will have to give to
the Canton vehicle office in Geneva or in Vaud. Our first aid certificate is valid everywhere in Switzerland.
Theory
Whether must pass a theoretical test or want to know more about Swiss road rules to
exchange your foreign license, the theory course will help you understand and memorize all the essential takeaway points. We have been developing this theory course for years and
have been able to ensure that you master Swiss road rules in a one-day course. Our course is taught in very small groups to promote interaction between participants and best learning conditions.
Sensibilisation
The sensibilisation also known as awareness course, will review, in theory, all the driving key points you will need to know to become an assertive and safe driver. The course is mandatory and lasts 8 hours. This course needs to be completed before registering for
your practical exam. At the end of the course, you won’t get any physical certificate, but your attendance will be validated in the canton vehicle office data system (SARI) automatically. Once done, it will remain valid forever. Our sensibilisation course is not only valid in Geneva and Vaud but as well in all cantons of Switzerland.
Car practice
As the leading English-speaking driving school in Geneva, we will not only help you with your driving but also getting used to the language by giving the lessons entirely in English and translating the different French phrases and directions you will encounter during your practical exam. Our tailored step by step driving lessons ensure an efficient, adaptive but as well pleasant teaching. Our experienced driving instructors will be able to help you with all aspects of driving (i.e. theoretical and technical knowledge, psychological aspects, language difficulties, specific city driving situations, self-confidence behind the wheels, coping with
exam situation or with stress or anxiety, etc).
License exchange
If you have just arrived in Geneva and you hold a foreign license, you will have one (1) year to exchange it into a Swiss driving license.
Depending on your country of origin, you will be able to exchange your licence directly or you may have to go on a practical exam. At L2D, we are proud to have helped hundreds of people with these procedures and have been known, over the years, as a foreign license exchange specialist in Geneva. We will as well be able to help you with the entire process and provide you with an official translator authorized to accompany you during your practical exam in the canton vehicle office. Do not underestimate Swiss driving exam requirements and get in touch with us as soon as possible so that we can make sure you can exchange your foreign license from the first and only attempt you have.
Practical exam
For the practical exam, the vehicle office (OCV) won’t provide you with any car. You have to go wether with your own car (with a mechanical handbrake) or rent a driving school’s car. We offer an exam package including a warm-up driving lesson before the exam and your favorite driving instructor supporting you and introducing you to the examiner at the vehicle office.
