Online Driver Education Course
UCPS Driver Education utilizes the Canvas LMS platform for the online course. Students registered for Driver Education who attend a UCPS school will be automatically enrolled into the course through their student ID number. Students who attend private, charter, or homeschool will receive an email to the address provided at registration, inviting them to create a profile. It is preferred that the email used to create the account belongs to the student and not a parent/guardian.
How the Online Course is Designed
- The curriculum is divided into six modules and should take around 30 hours to complete and thoroughly review.
- Each module consists of content, videos and assignments.
- A student must score at least 80 percent on an assignment to progress through the course.
- The course is self-paced but we do provide a recommended syllabus to ensure completion by the course deadline.
- Course announcements will remind students of deadlines and necessary paperwork for future Driver Education requirements.
- Once the course is complete, the final exam will open for your students on a certain date each month.
- Your student must make an 80% on the final to pass the course. Re-tests will be given to those students who do not make an 80%.
Course Deadline
Students enrolled in the Driver Education course will have a deadline to complete the coursework and the final exam. After the student's pass the final with an 80%, they must fill out the vision screening registration form. Students will have four months to complete the course. But it is important to complete the course on time according to the syllabus if students want to get there permit on time.
