Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is qualifying and training new drivers through the “Tadreeb” digital platform.
The platform links all driving institutes across Dubai, fully digitises training and qualification processes, automates assessments, and consolidates all trainee-related data.
Ahmed Mahboob, CEO of RTA's Licensing Agency, said, "The purpose of the platform is to identify the needs of trainees based on analysed data and figures, ensuring quality training for drivers and licensing a pool of skilled, professional drivers. It also contributes to achieving the highest safety standards, enhancing performance quality, and strengthening governance processes in line with global best practices."
Mahboob added, "The platform utilises the latest artificial intelligence technologies to qualify and train drivers across more than 27 training institute locations, supported by over 3,400 instructors and more than 3,000 training vehicles.
"Each vehicle’s route is electronically geo-tracked and linked to the main system. Serving around 250,000 trainees annually with over six million hours of training per year, the platform has operated safely since its inception, offering a seamless, fully paperless user experience."
