The Three Components to the BDE Course

Our BDE course is delivered either in-person or using self-paced instruction. The online option is available 24/7 and can be completed up to 5 hours a day, or as little as 15 minutes! Enjoy complete flexibility in this immersive system.
10 Hours 1-on-1 In-Car Instruction
Our instructors will deliver 10 hours of private, 1-on-1 instruction including local pick up and drop off within the city limits of the cities we service. Each lesson is carefully designed to maximize retention and ensure each student is growing and developing.
10 Hours of Homework
Our homework modules are delivered using the same self-paced technology as the course and can be completed at your own pace. These assignments and activities help to further develop road skills and retention of the ideas taught in the course.
