Grab Transport Driver Training & Assessment
Here at Grab, safety and quality have always been our top priorities. We’re therefore always striving and looking for opportunities to provide and improve our levels of safety and service, for both you and our passengers.
As such, from 8 June 2020, new and re-activating driver-partners (GrabCar & GrabTaxi) will have to complete 2 new courses & 1 driving safety training as part of our new onboarding requirements. This is to help uphold safety and quality levels of our transport services.
With effect on 3 May 2021, Driver-Partners will be required to complete the Driver Safety Training from Ngee Ann Polytechnic instead of the Safety & Quality Driving Assessment conducted by CDC.
Courses and Assessment
You’ll be required to complete the following courses as part of your onboarding requirements, where you will also be awarded individual certificates of completion:
Courses
- Vehicle Safety & Maintenance (Duration: 1 day)
Vehicle maintenance will help minimize repair-related expenses and keep your Grab journeys incident-free.
- Customer Service & Quality (Duration: 1 day)
Providing good customer service will help prepare you for situations with various types of passengers and ensure a high level of quality service will still be upheld.
- Driver Safety Training (Duration: 1 day)
Safe Driving Practices and defensive driving technique. Improving safety awareness and on-the-road reaction.
Participants who have attended the Safe Driving Course with CDC before 2nd May 2021 will be exempted for this module. A result slip by CDC will be given as a proof of completion.
