About the BE Rijinstructeur Exam

The Belgian driving-instructor brevet (brevet van beroepsbekwaamheid / brevet d'aptitude professionnelle) is the official certificate of professional competence required to teach in an approved driving school. It is organised regionally under the Royal Decree of 11 May 2004: Flanders by Departement MOW, Wallonia by SPW Mobilité et Infrastructures. Brussels Mobility states it cannot yet organise these exams, so Brussels candidates may sit the French-language Wallonia papers. Brevet II (practical category B and G) and brevet III (theory) are the core instructor routes. Official assessment is mixed: a written exam, an oral exam before the regional board, a traineeship, and a model lesson. Passing standards published by both Flanders and Wallonia are at least 60% in traffic safety, 50% in mechanics, and 60% overall, with 60% on the model lesson. The 2026 registration fee for the written and oral pair is EUR 35, indexed annually. This English MCQ bank is a study aid for the highway-code, mechanics, pedagogy and process knowledge — it is not an official translation or a simulation of the Dutch, French or German oral and performance exams.

BE Rijinstructeur Study Tips from Top Performers

1Memorise the published pass rule: 60% traffic safety, 50% mechanics, 60% overall, then 60% on the model lesson.

2Study the Belgian highway code at teaching depth — you must explain why a rule exists, not only recognise the sign.

3Learn brevet roles and licence codes: 102 for theory (brevet III), 103 for practical (brevet II/IV/V), 101 for a director who also holds brevet III.

4Drill dual-control school-car equipment from Article 18: dual pedals, acoustic instructor warning, extra mirrors, right-side doors, and the under-five-year age rule for category B lesson cars.

5Practise the cockpit drill and defect checks you will demonstrate in the model lesson: seat, mirrors, belts, headrests, doors, tyres, steering, brakes, fluids, lights and horn.

6Know regional speed defaults (Flanders/Wallonia built-up 50 km/h, Brussels built-up 30 km/h, motorway 120 km/h) because instructors teach learners who sit regional theory tests.

7Remember that the official papers are in Dutch or French. Use this English bank for knowledge, then rehearse explanations in the exam language.
