The actual physical skills are easy to learn, but signalling, and navigating your way through encounters with traffic is another thing entirely.
Actually it's a lot harder for an adult to learn to ride. Higher center of gravity, a lot more mental history to interfere with doing the right things. Some adults might be able to just jump on and go, but not all, for some it's VERY hard to learn. I know I've seen them, just not in Calgary.

After they learn then yeah I know where to get an actual bike safety course.

Maybe a bike shop would know.

I can save you some money.
1. Get on bike.
2. Place feet on pedals and push with legs.
3. Keep hands on handle bars at all times.
Yup, it's easy when you already know how.
