FAQ
Do I need a G1 before I start the BDE course?
Yes, you can take the online portion only before you get your G1 as long as you have turned 16, or your birthday is within 2 month of the course date. We require a G1 copy on file at the office before any in-car lessons can be taught.
Is the Beginner Driver Education Course MTO Certified?
Yes! Our Digital BDE program is MTO certified! This means it meets or exceeds the standards of all licensed driving schools.
What if I miss an in-car lesson?
If you miss an in-car lesson please contact your driving instructor at least 24 hours in advance to avoid a cancellation fee. Lessons will be made up in-car and can be scheduled directly with your instructor.
How long do I have to finish the BDE course?
The MTO allows for 1 year from the date of enrollment into the online course to complete the course. If you do not complete the course within one year you will be required to take the entire course again.
Would I be able to use the instructor's car for road test?
We offer the road test package which includes one hour refresher lesson before the road test and the usage of the car for the road test.
Where do I go to book my Road test?

Are payment plans available?
Absolutely! Payment plans are available for the Beginner Driving Certificate Program (BDE Course) and the Advance Driving Certificate Program.
Here is how it works: You can pay half of the course fee when you start either the 10 hours of flexible interactive training hours or the 20 hours of classroom training (WHICH EVER COMES FIRST). You then pay the outstanding fees on your 1st in-car lesson.
How much discount will I get on my insurance with BDE?
Insurance discounts vary depending on your insurance company, driving record, age, type of car, etc. Contact your Insurance Company or broker for specific information.
How long will it take before I get my certificate?
You should get your certificate within 48 hours.
Do I receive a certificate for every driver training program?
No. You will only be certified ON-LINE for the Beginner Driving Certificate Program (BDE Course) or the Advance Driving Certificate Program.
What if I required proof of course completion?
Students wanting proof of driving course completion for possible insurance discounts and have been processed through on-line certification transactions need to obtain their DRIVER LICENCE HISTORY. This is done by request through the MTO at any of the LOCAL LICENSING centers. The Driver License History (DLH) search can only be requested by the driver license holder, as it contains personal information. The application must be signed by the applicant. Cost to apply for the DLH is $12.00
