We value everyone and treat people with dignity, kindness, and empathy – on both their good days and bad days. We share the challenges and triumphs of our customers as we help them begin their motorcycling journey. We also listen to the opinions and contributions of our colleagues and recognise the importance of listening to different points of view.

We take our responsibility as a licensing provider very seriously. We recognise that motorcycling can be a high-risk activity, and we commit to uncompromisingly high standards of risk management. We believe in setting our customers up for success at every level of the organisation – from coaching and licensing our customers through to supporting and training our staff.

We consistently deliver excellence. We do this for every customer, every day – both in the technical delivery of our courses, but also in how we deliver them. We also do this for our staff, every day – we have an ongoing commitment to continuously improving our systems, processes and staff experience.

Our History
Stay Upright begins
Two Police rider trainers recognise the need for public formal motorcycle training and Stay Upright – Australia’s first riding school, was born. It was named after the catchphrase used by the police riders as they left the St Ives Police Rider Training HQ. The first courses were Advanced, offered at NSW’s Amaroo and Oran Parks, on both asphalt and dirt surfaces. These were followed shortly afterwards by learn to ride courses in NSW and the ACT.
