Basic stunt riding course — studying from Canada

Canada's motorcycle and two-wheeler market is relatively modest compared with the car sector, but it supports a network of dealers, distributors, parts suppliers and recreational riding communities. Manufacturers and importers serve markets across provinces, with seasonal demand shaped by climate. Engineering work in this area includes vehicle homologation, component design and electric two-wheeler development. Regulation of vehicle safety and emissions involves federal and provincial authorities.

Fees for Canada: 1,240 CA$ (Canadian dollar), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

Relevant bodies in Canada

  • Transport Canada
  • Canadian Standards Association (CSA Group)
  • Motorcycle and Moped Industry Council (MIC) – Canadian members

Questions from Canada

Are SEIUM programmes official Canadian degrees?

No. SEIUM qualifications are private awards issued by SEIUM Institute and are not official degrees recognised by Canadian federal or provincial authorities.

How are fees shown for Canadian learners?

All fees on this site are displayed in Canadian dollars (CAD). Instalment plans are available, and employer sponsorship can be discussed.

Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

Training is 100% online on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: you progress at your own pace within the intake, so you can combine the course with your job.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Kinovea, Dartfish, GoPro Quik and CapCut, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Tests are studied on real procedures: supervised training in closed venues, filming and analysis of manoeuvres and technical preparation of exhibition motorcycles. Assessment is continuous for each module, plus the final project.

Standards covered: Royal Legislative Decree 6/2015 (Spanish Traffic and Road Safety Act); UNECE Regulation No. 22.06 (protective helmets); UNE-EN 17092 (protective garments for motorcyclists); UNE-EN 1621-2 (back protectors for motorcyclists); UNE-EN 1621-1 (limb impact protectors); Royal Decree 393/2007 (Spanish basic self-protection standard for emergency planning).

Assigned technical tutor:every module ends with a deliverable that your tutor marks individually.
Standards-based learning:guided reading of Royal Legislative Decree 6/2015, UNECE Regulation No. 22.06 and UNE-EN 17092 applied to real cases, not as a theoretical annex.
Industry software:Kinovea, Dartfish, GoPro Quik and CapCut, in free, academic or evaluation versions.
Final project:a safe, documented progressive stunt training programme with video analysis and a safe exhibition proposal, reviewed by your tutor.
Flexible format:100% online, no fixed timetables, compatible with full-time work.
