Knowledge (Written) Tests
To obtain a learner’s licence in any of the licence classes, a knowledge (written/oral) test must be taken.
Knowledge tests for all classes are administered using a computer.
The test on the computer is available in English and French. All other foreign language tests are administered on paper. There is a time limit of one-half hour to complete the test.
Please note: The customer will need to give written consent for another individual, including a parent or legal guardian, to purchase and book a road test on their behalf. This requirement is dictated by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA) which prohibits us from releasing any information about another customer without their written consent.
