Information

The 6 hours of "behind the wheel" training is not done during class hours and will be arranged with instructors at the end of the classroom training block. Once the student has completed the 36 hours they will be issued a Certificate of Completion. The certificate also entitles the holder to discounts with some insurance companies (Check with your individual company for discount).

Instructioin permits are available at the Department of Motor Vehicle - Drivers License Division. Please contact the Motor Vehicle Department at (928) 779-7562 for questions regarding Instructional Permits and Drivers License.
- MVD waives the behind the wheel portion of the driver's license test for students with certificats of copletion (although they reserve the right to administer tests to any applicant if the field station reprsentatives believe doing so would be in the interest of public safety). Please remember that students must have held an Instruction permit for 6 months before they can receive their license even if students are over the age of 16.
