The class satisfies the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements and includes 30 hours of classroom instruction, six hours of behind-the-wheel driving experience and six hours of observation.

To comply with Iowa law, students must attend all classes and scheduled driving sessions. Ensure your schedule is clear for the duration of the course; no exceptions. Students must be 14 years of age and possess a valid driver’s permit before the first class.
