Since VDI was founded in 2003, we have adhered to a very simple philosophy – provide students the highest value training opportunities possible. And we measure that value just as our predecessor, the Scotti School, did more than four decades ago – by how applicable our training is to each and every one our student’s everyday role and responsibilities. As forty plus years of driver training experience has shown, providing that value means evolving with both the times and automotive technology; for our students an added value of this evolution has always been more opportunities to succeed when and where it counts the most – out on the streets, where they earn their living managing the safety and security risks of those whom they are responsible for.
Increased Demand Drives VDI’s Move to World Class Facility
As has been the case since we opened our doors nearly 15 years ago, demand for VDI’s custom and open enrollment training courses continues to grow among our private sector, government, and law enforcement clientele. Along with meeting this growing demand, our team is committed to improving the quality of our training and continuing to enhance the learning opportunities provided to our students.
With that in mind, VDI is both pleased and excited to announce that for 2018 – and beyond – we will be conducting our open enrollment and custom training programs at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, PA.

Dispelling Myths and Misconceptions Regarding Older (Security) Drivers
While by now most of us have heard the joke about the young bull and the old bull standing on the top of a hill looking down at a herd of cows grazing beyond a fence; those who have trained with us know that a slow walk down the hill and around the fence isn’t […]
Why Would You Go There?!
Like many in the protection profession, I have often been asked by others why it is that I had traveled, or would be traveling to, some far off place with a dangerous reputation. But I must admit to being somewhat surprised recently when that very question was posed to me by an executive protection provider, […]
