Learn With Us: A decade of leadership.
A passion for sharing knowledge.
In November 2026, Driving Well Occupational Therapy proudly marks 10 years of industry leadership, clinical innovation and professional education.
What began with one or two driving assessments each fortnight from Jenny’s kitchen table has grown into a nationally recognised practice, supporting clients across Queensland while educating occupational therapists, rehabilitation professionals and industry partners throughout Australia.
10 years of a small, bespoke clinical practice = 3000+ driving assessments and almost 200 vehicle modification applications
This conference is the culmination of ten years of clinical practice, collaboration, innovation and education. It has been designed to bring together clinicians, industry and researchers to share ideas, challenge thinking and ultimately improve outcomes for people who rely on driving and vehicle modifications to participate fully in their communities.
Why Learn With Driving Well?
Our education is grounded in real clinical practice.
Every workshop, presentation and conference session is shaped by the challenges we see every day—complex assessments, emerging technologies, evolving legislation and the practical realities of supporting clients with diverse medical conditions and disabilities.
Our goal is simple: to equip clinicians with practical knowledge, confidence and evidence-based approaches they can immediately apply in practice.

Learning Together
One of Driving Well’s greatest strengths is the relationships we’ve built across occupational therapy, engineering, vehicle modification, driver training, government and industry.
Whether it’s answering “just a quick question” from a fellow clinician, mentoring the next generation of driver-trained occupational therapists or collaborating with suppliers to solve complex client challenges, we believe that better outcomes are achieved when knowledge is shared openly.
This conference embodies that philosophy.
Together, we’ll learn from one another, challenge traditional thinking, explore innovative solutions and continue raising the standard of driving assessment and vehicle modification practice across Australia.
Because when clinicians, industry and researchers work together, everyone benefits—especially the people and communities we serve.
