Frequently Asked Questions

Ohio Driver's Ed Course

Does the state of Ohio license your Ohio Driver Ed program?

Yes, we are licensed by the Ohio Department of Public Safety (DPS). Once you complete the driver ed course, we will mail you a certificate of completion. Can you imagine a fun driving school, and driver’s ed without the hassle?

Who can take this online Ohio course?

If you are 15 ½ – 18 years old, living in Ohio, and are applying to get your learner permit before you turn 18, then you can take this online Driver Education course. We can point you in the right direction for driving school also. Take a driver ed course that covers all the bases and get your education from the best!

We also offer our classes to adults aged 18 and up. You don’t have to be a teen to enroll in our entertainingly comprehensive driving program. We’ll provide you with a fun learning experience either way. You can still register if you’re currently out of town or in a different state. As long as you’re an Ohio resident, our course qualifies you for official documentation in that area!

Can I take an online Driver Ed before I have a permit?

Yes, you can. Once you have completed the driver license application online, you can enroll in a driver education course (not required for ages 18+).

What do I bring to the Driver License Center for my permit?

Make sure you bring your proof of identity (name and date of birth) and social security card.

How long is your Ohio Driver Ed course?

The online Driver Education course is 24 hours per Ohio state requirements, just like all classroom courses. You can log in and out of this online driver ed course as often as you like.

Do I have to complete the online course on one device?

No. You can use multiple devices and switch between devices as often as you like for this Ohio course.

When will I receive my Certificate of Completion?

You can immediately download your Driver Education course diploma after you have completed the course. Your completion will also be reported to the Ohio BMV for you within 24 hours of completing your course.

Are there any additional fees?

There are no other fees for our online driver education course. Next steps include doing 8 hours of driving time with a certified local instructor, then an additional 50 hours with a parent, guardian, or custodian (with 10 of them being at night). After you’ve had your TIPIC for at least six months, you’ll be able to get your license!

Can I drive alone with a permit?

Yes, you can! If under age 16, drivers must have a parent, guardian or licensed driving instructor in the passenger seat when driving.

If the driver is age 16 or older, driving with any validly licensed driver over the age of 21 in the passenger seat is permitted. During the time from midnight to 6 a.m., a parent/guardian/custodian must accompany the driver.

Where do I take my driver's exam?

You can schedule your driver exam at a nearby BMV location online via the BMV website.

When do I need to complete this online driver education course by?

The BMV requires that you complete the course as a requirement to obtain your full license. However, you can finish our online driver education course at your own pace, and there are no due dates.

We want to emphasize that other states have different qualifications. Driving students in other territories have limitations on when they can complete their classes. We’d like to clarify that so you’re prepared in case you suddenly need to move and have to be a driver in a different state. For more information on another territory, you can visit those FAQs on our website. We know that our students are busy with their grade schools and jobs, so we let them take their time at their convenience. Our classes can do that because Utah doesn’t have laws restricting the hours or days for completion.

What do I do next? How do I get my full unrestricted license?

You can schedule a road test if you already have your learner permit, are confident with your capabilities, and all requirements are met. To schedule a driving test, the applicant must present their temporary instruction permit identification card (TIPIC), and if under age 18, the applicant must present a driver education certificate. Applicants also must provide a vehicle in good condition for testing. An inspection will be performed before the test begins.

What are the restrictions on a learner permit?

If you are 15, 16, or 17 the learner permit entitles you to operate a regular motor vehicle only if:

  • Drivers must carry the TIPIC at all times when driving.
  • If under age 16, drivers must have a parent, guardian or licensed driving instructor in the passenger seat when driving.
  • If the driver is age 16 or older, driving with any valid licensed driver over the age of 21 in the passenger seat is permitted, except from midnight – 6 a.m., when the driver must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
  • The parent, guardian, or licensed driver in the passenger seat shall not be intoxicated.
  • All passengers and drivers must wear safety belts.

If you are 18 years old the learner permit entitles you to operate a regular motor vehicle only if:

  • Once a driver is issued a TIPIC, they can practice driving only if accompanied by a licensed driver age 21 or older.
