AFTER NOT FLYING FOR ABOUT 7 YRS, THE PLT OBTAINED FLT INSTRUCTION IN PREPARATION FOR A BIENNIAL FLT REVIEW. HIS 1ST FLT WAS COMPLETED 4 DAYS PRIOR TO THE ACDNT. THE ACDNT FLT WAS TO BE DEVOTED PRIMARILY TO TAKEOFFS & LANDINGS. THE STUDENT PLT WAS RPRTD TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE 1ST LANDING WAS TO BE A FULL STOP, FOLLOWED BY A TAXI-BACK FOR ANOTHER TAKEOFF. AS THE ACFT WAS ON THE LANDING ROLL, HE APPLIED INPUTS TO THE CONTROLS TO MOVE THE ACFT TO THE RGT SIDE OF THE RWY TO TURN BACK. AT APRX THAT TIME, THE INSTRUCTOR (CFI) RPRTDLY TOLD THE STUDENT TO MAKE THE LANDING A TOUCH-&-GO.AFTER POWER WAS APPLIED FOR TAKEOFF, THE ACFT VEERED OFF THE RGT SIDE OF THE RWY, WENT DOWN AN EMBANKMENT & CAME TO REST INVERTED.
