You should also make sure your training course covers safety as ATV's can be very dangerous if you do not know how to follow the proper safety precautions.
After you have taken a training course, it is time to go out and practice. It is a good idea to always ride with someone else until you are comfortable with your abilities. You should ride with someone who is experienced and a good rider so that you can benefit form watching their technique. You can even decide is an ATV is a good investment fro you by riding with someone else before you purchase your own ATV.
