The ND Department of Public Instruction’s bus driver training requirements also apply to drivers of school vehicles designed to seat 10 to 15 passengers. In many schools, this driver is a coach, parent, or other staff who may not have professional driving experience. This course is designed to meet DPI’s training requirement while providing guidance for safely transporting students.
Course topics will include:
• Reducing crash risk by using the Four Driving Principals to Safety(tm)
• Professional driver best practices for navigating intersections
• Traveling during adverse weather conditions
• Effective methods for managing fatigue
• Preventing driver distractions
What is NDSC Distance Learning?
This virtual course is not pre-recorded. You’ll be virtually face-to-face with an instructor who will guide you and other students through an interactive digital training experience from the comfort of your office, home or wherever you are.
The NDSC has determined that cell phones will not be allowed as an acceptable device to attend our Distance Learning Sessions. You will need your cell phone available to scan and complete the evaluation, which is not possible to do if using it as your session viewing screen. Please be sure you can sign in using a Computer, Laptop or Tablet with a webcam or embedded camera and speakers.
