The rules that get people dismissed
Every one of these is a Georgia DDS requirement for live remote classes. Students lose their seat and their fee over them every week — almost always because nobody told them in advance.
Read this before your first live class
These are Georgia DDS requirements, not house preferences. Breaking them means dismissal with no refund and no certificate.
Camera on, face fully visible, the entire class
Dismissal riskYour camera must stay on for the full session, framed so your whole face, both ears, and your shoulders are clearly visible. Long hair and ponytails must be tied back or moved so your ears are never covered — your instructor is required to confirm you are not wearing earbuds or headphones and is not permitted to take your word for it.
Desktop, laptop, or tablet only — no phones
Dismissal riskYou must join from a desktop, laptop, or tablet with a working webcam and microphone. Mobile phones are not permitted: the screen is too small to display the required course material, and the camera cannot hold the framing the state requires for monitoring.
No beds, no vehicles, no lying down
Dismissal riskSitting on a bed, lying down, or attending from inside a vehicle — parked or moving — results in immediate dismissal with no refund. You must be seated upright at a desk or table for the whole class.
A quiet, private, well-lit room
Attend from a quiet room on your own, with enough light on your face for the instructor to see you clearly. Family members, children, pets, television, and background noise are all disruptions the instructor is required to act on.
100% attendance — a 10-minute absence disqualifies you
Dismissal riskState rules require your presence for every minute of the course. Missing more than 10 minutes in total, across the whole class, disqualifies you and you will need to start over and pay again. Log in early and plan your breaks around the scheduled ones.
Reliable internet and a working microphone
Test your connection, camera, and microphone the day before. You will be asked to respond out loud during roll calls and participation checks, and repeated failures to respond are recorded as absence.
Test your camera, microphone, and internet connection the day before — not ten minutes before class starts. If something is not working, call us and we will help you sort it out in advance.
Georgia Driver Education Grant Scholarship
Georgia runs a grant scholarship that can cover driver education for eligible teens, and we are an authorized provider — so an awarded scholarship can be redeemed here. If your teen is 15 and under 18 and already holds a valid Georgia learner's permit, it is worth ten minutes of your time to check before you pay for anything.
Who can apply
- Georgia residents aged 15 and under 18
- Must hold a valid Georgia learner's permit at the time of application
- Applied for directly through the state portal, not through the school
How to apply
Open the state application portal
Go to the Georgia Driver Education Grant Scholarship online application portal. Applications are handled by the state, not by the school, so apply directly through the official site.
Choose “Student Login”
Select the Student Login option on the portal home page and follow the on-screen registration instructions to begin a new application.
Create your account and submit your information
Create the student account and submit the required information, including the student's valid Georgia learner's permit details.
Check your email and finish registering
Open the confirmation email from the portal and complete the final registration steps. Applications are not considered submitted until this step is done.
Bring us your redemption code
Once the scholarship is awarded you receive a redemption code. Call us with it and we will book your teen's course against it — you do not pay us for the covered portion.
Apply before the course starts, not after
Scholarships must be awarded before a student begins their driver education course. If a student or parent pays out of pocket and begins the course while an application is still open, that application can be reconsidered. If you think you may be eligible, apply first and call us second — we will hold a place while you wait.
The scholarship is administered by the State of Georgia, not by us, so applications go through the portal directly. Once it is approved, call us with your redemption code and we will get your teen booked in.
Straight answers, then the class
Most people who call us are dealing with a court date, an insurance renewal, or a teenager who needs to be somewhere at 7am. We answer the question first.
We tell you what you actually need
Call us with your paperwork before you pay anyone. Half the people who ring us have been told to take the wrong course, or the right course in the wrong order.
Live classes for anything court-ordered
Georgia DDS does not accept self-paced online certificates for Risk Reduction. Every class we teach is live, on camera, with a certified instructor — the format that counts. Self-paced is fine for the 30-hour driver's ed course, and we will point you at a state-approved one, but never for a court-ordered class.
Real hours behind the wheel
Six hours one-on-one in a dual-control car. Highways, merging and parallel parking are what new drivers dread, so we build up to them deliberately instead of dropping a teenager into traffic on day one.
Discreet and non-judgemental
A DUI is a bad few months, not a character verdict. Our instructors run the class as a professional appointment, because that is what it is.
The four we get asked most
More on the FAQ page, or call and ask us directly.
Will Georgia DDS accept a course I take online?
Only if it is live. DDS accepts live virtual classes where you are on camera with a live instructor for the entire 20 hours — which is what we run. Georgia DDS and the courts do not accept certificates from self-paced online DUI or Risk Reduction programs for license reinstatement or court purposes. If a website lets you click through at your own pace with no live instructor, that certificate will be rejected.
Why does this cost $95 when other courses online are $25?
The Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) sets a required $95 fee for the official, certified 6-hour Driver Improvement course. Cheaper online courses aren't state-certified and won't be accepted by Georgia courts or the DDS. A super low price is usually a red flag, not a deal.
What exactly does Joshua's Law require?
A 30-hour driver education course, plus either 6 hours of professional in-car lessons or 40 hours of parent-taught driving. Those are not the whole picture though: on top of either route, every teen needs 40 hours of supervised driving including 6 at night, and must hold a learner's permit for 1 year and 1 day before applying. Our course is open to teens aged 15 and under 18, so it can be started well before the licence application itself.
Can I take it on my phone?
No. You must join from a desktop, laptop, or tablet with a working webcam. Phones cannot display the required material or hold the camera framing the state requires, and students who join by phone are turned away.
Not sure which class you need?
Bring your paperwork to the call. Tell us what the court, DDS, or your insurer asked for and we will tell you exactly which course satisfies it — and which one does not.
