Generally pupils are among the following. You are either starting and need to undertake the Essential Driver Training Syllabus. Otherwise you need to kick off your pretest preparation.
What exactly is the EDT?

Inescapable fact! Ireland is on the list of nations with the worst road death stats in Europe. The Essential Driver Training Syllabus was brought in by the Road Safety Authority to aid tackle the situation.
The Essential Driver Training Syllabus is made up of 12 obligatory lessons that must be delivered by a RSA approved driving instructor to all new drivers.
In an effort to lower crashes and plug the apparent driving skills gap that many new motorists were missing, the 12 lesson syllabus was developed.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.
