The program is ideal for:
- Licensed teachers who wish to teach driver education in public or private schools
- Individuals who wish to teach driver education in commercial or agency settings
This nine-hour licensure program can be completed in one semester -- or one eight-week summer term. Or, students can complete the program one course at a time.
