Driver Ed FAQ

After course completion, students receive ADE Certificate to apply for an adult Tennessee learner's permit.

No permit is required to take the driver ed class. The student must be at least 15 years old by the first day of class.

Missing a classes can be made up by attending the class during the same day at a different time (if available) or attending the missed class during the next course. No more than four hours (or two classes) of classroom instruction may be missed. The class time cannot be made up, but the student will have to make up any quiz or test that was missed and will be given an assignment that is equivalent to the material missed.  If more than four hours or two classes are missed, the student cannot continue the course and will be documented as "incomplete" on our state paperwork. They will have six months to complete drivers ed or will have to take the entire class over.
