Driver Education Program
If you're a new driver in Maryland, completing a certified Driver Education Program is mandatory, regardless of your age. The course comprises 30 hours of classroom learning and six (6) hours of behind-the-wheel instruction.
The classroom component of the Driver Education Program runs for three hours a day, ten days in a row (Monday through Friday) or five consecutive weekends (Saturday and Sunday).
Additionally, the program includes six hours of in-car driving instruction. After completing the first five days of classroom learning, students can request access to schedule their in-car lessons.
You do not need a Learner's Instructional Permit to begin the classroom component of the Driver Education Program.
Before scheduling the behind-the-wheel component of the Driver Education Program, new drivers must obtain a Learner's Instructional Permit.
