In Uganda, having a driver’s license isn’t just about the freedom to move—it’s a door to new opportunities. From delivering goods across Kampala to driving clients through the streets of Entebbe or working as a personal driver in Mukono, one license can unlock countless jobs.
If you’ve ever wanted to drive confidently, legally, and skillfully, the Class B Driving Course is your perfect first step.
At Fern Engineering & Machinery Training, we don’t teach driving like a checklist—we train you to be a responsible, confident driver who understands both the wheel and the world around it.
Whether you want to drive a private car, become a professional driver, or simply need the license for future job prospects, this course will give you everything you need—from road signs to real road experience.
This Class B driving course is focused on non-commercial vehicles—mostly cars and small vans weighing not more than 3,500 kg. It’s the category you need to drive most saloon cars, SUVs, taxis, and personal vehicles legally on Ugandan roads.
You begin with classroom theory. This includes understanding the Uganda Highway Code, road signs, lane discipline, defensive driving, speed limits, and traffic rules.
You’ll also learn basic car maintenance and safety checks—how to inspect tyres, lights, brakes, engine oil, and coolant before you start a journey.
Once the basics are clear, we shift focus to the car itself. You’ll learn how to sit properly, adjust mirrors, understand the dashboard, and control the clutch, accelerator, and brakes. From there, it’s full road practice—driving through town, handling roundabouts, starting on slopes, overtaking safely, and reversing in tight spots.
You’ll practice day by day under the supervision of patient instructors who don’t shout, don’t rush, and don’t judge. You’ll build confidence with each turn of the key.
There are many driving schools in Uganda—but very few go beyond just helping you “pass a test.” At Fern Engineering & Machinery Training, our Class B driving course is built for real driving, real safety, and real opportunities.
We don’t give you 5 rushed driving sessions and send you for testing. We give you time. We train you until you’re ready—mentally and practically. Whether you’re 18 or 45, this course meets you where you are and helps you move forward.
Our instructors are friendly, respectful, and experienced. They train in English, Swahili, and explain key points in Luganda when needed. They’ve trained hundreds of drivers who are now confidently driving for companies, families, or themselves.
Coming from outside Kampala? No worries. We offer affordable accommodation for our trainees from upcountry. You’ll stay in clean rooms, enjoy daily hot meals, and focus on learning without worrying about rent or food. If you’re coming from a foreign country, we’ll support you with visa processing and guide you from the moment you reach the border or airport.
And when you finish the course? We don’t leave you on your own. If you’re looking to work as a driver, we provide job connection support. Many of our Class B graduates now work with ride-hailing companies, NGOs, private businesses, and hotels that need professional drivers.
We train students from every walk of life: school leavers, young parents, job seekers, and even people returning from abroad who want to restart their journey with skill and pride.
If you’re coming from far away, we offer affordable and clean accommodation, meals, and beds during the training. And for our foreign brothers and sisters coming from Kenya, South Sudan, Congo, or Rwanda—we offer free visa assistance so you can train here with ease and confidence.
Not everyone understands English perfectly—and we respect that. That’s why we train in English, Swahili, and explain key topics in Luganda when needed. Whether you’re a beginner or someone who failed a previous driving attempt, this course is for you. No shame, no pressure—just the guidance and time you need to succeed.
How long does the Class B driving course take in Uganda?
Our standard training takes about 3 to 4 weeks, depending on your learning speed. We don’t rush you. You’ll attend both theory and road lessons, and practice under different driving conditions. If you need more time, we’ll offer it—because we want you to drive confidently, not just pass.
Can I join if I’ve never driven before?
Yes. This course is made for absolute beginners. We teach you step-by-step from scratch, including how to sit properly, hold the steering wheel, and shift gears. We’ve trained total beginners who are now confident drivers. You’re not late, and you’re not alone.
Do you help with getting a driving test and license?
Yes. After completing the course, we’ll help you book your official Uganda driving test. We also guide you through the licensing process so you get your official Class B permit from the Uganda Licensing Authority (URA). No shortcuts—just honest, clear help.
How much is the Class B driving course in Uganda?
Fees range from UGX 350,000 to UGX 800,000 depending on your training plan and whether you need a driving permit plus the training. We allow installment payments—you can start with half and pay the balance later. We also offer discounts and bursaries at certain times. Reach out to see what’s available.
Do you offer accommodation and food for students?
Yes. If you’re coming from outside Kampala or the surrounding areas, we offer free shared accommodation and daily meals during training. You’ll stay near the training ground, and meals are included. We want you to learn in peace and comfort.
Can I train in my own language?
Yes. We train in English, but also support trainees in Swahili and explain in Luganda where necessary. Our goal is to help you understand—regardless of language level. You’ll feel supported and comfortable throughout.
Do you help foreigners with visa applications?
Yes. If you’re coming from a neighboring country, we’ll offer free visa assistance, send you an invitation letter, and guide you on how to enter Uganda legally for training. Once you arrive, we provide accommodation and help you settle in.
Will I get help finding a driving job after this course?
Yes. We offer job connection assistance to students who complete their course successfully. Whether it’s private driving, logistics, company vehicles, or hotel driving jobs, we share leads and write referrals to support your job search.
Every day you wait is a job opportunity passing by. Class B driving is not just about having a license—it’s about showing up ready when opportunity knocks. Whether you want to drive for Uber, a private company, or for yourself, this course is your key to freedom, dignity, and income.
At Fern Engineering & Machinery Training, we teach with patience, house you with care, feed you with warmth, and train you with purpose.
