Admin,
Driving instructor qualifications and driving school requirements depend on where you are. Different states and Provinces of the U.S. and Canada have different rules and systems.
You will find a list of links here
http://www.drivers.com/article/639/ to government web sites. Also, if you check our NEW DRIVERS, LICENSING and TRAINING sections you will find links to Organizations that can help. for example, http://www.drivers.com/topic/121/
