Students can be picked up at home; however, depending on the location of the appointment, arrangements can be made to be picked up at school or work. OR they may have to meet at the office location. Students must have their valid temporary permit present in order to drive.
What if we need to cancel an In-car?
Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance by calling (216) 941-6888, or a $25 fee is assessed.
How far in advance should I schedule In-Car Training?
Slots are filling up fast. We suggest scheduling your In-Car Training as soon as you can.
When will my teen receive his Certificate of Completion?
Certificates of Completion will be uploaded to the student's account 7 - 14 business days after the student completes our Teen Program. For your convenience, do not schedule driving exams until you have received the Certificate uploaded to the student's account.
