Are there any particular courses I need to take (except the obvious one: learn how to drive)?
What kind of paper work is involved?
Does the procedure vary from province to province?

If you are in Karachi, they have an office at Clifton. Just go there fill a simple form, they'll take your image. And u'll get your learner's license. After 3 months repeat the same procedure, except this time they will charge more (you have to buy some stamp thingy worth 1000 bucks available thr as well) and have to pocket park your car in reverse in front of them. You'll get your license in days.

Recommended + Easy way: There are some agents standing infront of the office. He will charge you like 200 more and will get all the things done for you (ofc u still have to pocket park).

*Disclaimer: The above answer is based on 4 years old memories of an individual and the procedure might vary little bit. :D

Talking in context of the Islamabad Traffic Police, getting a drivers' license without a Learner is nearly impossible. You do need a Learners' License, and getting that made takes only a day.
