Parents are asked to watch the Parent Meeting Video in the first module and before each certificate that is issued. The student will watch the remainder of the videos and complete the coursework. Parents will need to sign both the permit and driver's license certificates. Parents will choose to do all of the in-car instruction or work with a driving instructor in your area. 

The Parent Meeting Video covers all aspects of what the course entails. We are here to help you through the process of obtaining your student's driver's license.
