Driver Education

    ~You do not need to be a student at HCC to take driver education at HCC - Serving Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia students - Join us~

   

The HCC driver education course includes 30 hours of classroom training, six hours of behind-the-wheel driving, and is required by the state of Maryland for all Maryland drivers obtaining their first driver license.

Each Driver Education course will cover:

  • Thirty hours of classroom instruction will include discussion of space management, basic maneuvering, reducing risks, and personal factors influencing operator performance and collision avoidance. 
  • Six hours of individual student driving will be scheduled and begin after the fourth classroom session. Basic car control, parallel parking, and all varieties of roads will be traveled.

Each driver education class will include a 3-hour orientation and will acquaint students with the school's requirements and components of the Maryland's Graduated Driver Licensing Law.

 Attendance at the ENTIRE 3-hour orientation is REQUIRED for students and parents/mentors.

**If a student misses the Driver Education Orientation class, they can not continue in the session and must be scheduled into another driver education course.  All students MUST ATTEND the orientation class. The first class attendance is Maryland MVA policy and we are not able to change this. 

 

Students are required to bring their learner's permit to the Driver Education orientation class.  The Learner's Permit is a State of Maryland requirement to complete the entire driver education course.  Students without learner's permits will not be allowed to continue past the orientation class and will be rescheduled into a later class.
