This class is the first step toward earning a driver’s license. Our comprehensive Driver’s Education program is taught by certified instructors and designed to prepare students with the knowledge they need to become safe, confident drivers.
Students 18 years old and younger are required to complete 30 hours of classroom instruction before they are eligible to take the permit test.
Registering for the Driver’s Education classroom only means your student will receive a Letter of Completion after successfully completing the 30-hour course.
This letter alone cannot be used to take the permit test at the DMV.
