Packages
The Blended Package Driver Education Course includes a total of 30 hours of classroom instruction and 10 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction. The specific start and end dates for each class can be found on the class offerings. Please note that these dates are applicable to the 30 hours of classroom instruction only, while the 10 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction will often continue beyond these dates. Once a student has completed classes 1, 2, and 3, and has fully paid their tuition balance, they will be able to schedule their drive time through the convenient Student Portal.
It is essential to recognize that the student may not complete their drive time by the tenth class due to various circumstances. Throughout the school year, scheduling drive time may become increasingly challenging, particularly with after-school commitments including participating in Zoom classes three days a week after school. If a student has flexibility in their schedule and the ability to drive during school hours, they will have increased opportunities to fulfill their drive time requirements.
You'll see two hour driving appointments available to choose from. The State of Maine allows students to drive for a maximum of two hours per day. Our driving instructors offer open time slots during the day and after school and some may work on weekends. Generally, there is one time slot available after school. Pick up and drop off for each drive is from the location you enroll in.
The AAA Online Self-Paced Course includes a total of 6 hours of online classroom instruction and 10 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction. The specific start and end dates for each class can be found on the class offerings. Once a student has attended the orientation, completed classes 1, 2 and has fully paid their tuition balance, they will be able to schedule their drive time through the convenient Student Portal.
To ensure quality instruction, we limit the number of seats per class based on our current staffing levels. At times (unforeseen circumstances may disrupt our plans), there may arise occasions when our instructors need to take vacations, fall ill, or face family emergencies, consequently impacting their availability. However, please rest assured that we'll always work hard to provide the service you have paid for.
Please be aware that it takes up to three months for our instructors to undergo training and obtain Class A and B licenses in the State of Maine. If you or anyone you know may be interested in becoming an instructor, please contact us.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns prior to registering. We're here to help and provide the best possible driver education experience for your student.
