Driver’s Education

Driver's education is made up of two parts, classroom and driving instruction.

Classroom Component

The classroom component consists of thirty hours of classroom instruction in a traditional classroom setting.  The thirty hours of instruction is broken down into ten 3-hour classes.  Attendance is mandatory and if a student needs to miss he or she will have to make up the missed class in our next session.

If your schedule won't allow you to make the ten classes, the online course might be your best option.  You will still spend thirty hours working on the course but you can do it on your own schedule (up to three hours in a day).

Driving Component

The driving component consists of six hours of behind-the-wheel instruction with one of our certified instructors.  The driving schedule is very flexible and we let you pick the days, times, and instructor(s) that you drive with.  You can drive up to 2-hours per day and three drives or 4-hours in a week with an instructor.
