apoiar/instruir


Explanation:
É assim que entendo o sentido do verbo:

"Considera-se / É suposto que o segurado seja portador do título oficial emitido quando conduzir sob a supervisão imediata de um instrutor autorizado com a finalidade de o preparar e apoiar/instruir para o exame oficial e obter o título de condução."

Ou seja, o instruendo nas aulas práticas de condução deve ser portador de uma licença de aprendizagem. O instrutor tem a função de preparar o instruendo e apoiá-lo/instruí-lo durante essas aulas para que este possa, no fim, obter a carta de condução (provisória durante 3 anos).
