Frequently asked questions
How do I know what courses are available in and around my community?
Our Driver Z Course Finder tool is updated before the registration windows open so you can plan ahead and see what courses are available to you. Simply enter your school division, school and birthday to see the most recent course offerings that you are eligible for.
Will there still be courses available during general registration?
Yes, we anticipate that course seats in most communities will be available during general registration.
What if all the courses in and around my community are full by general registration? What are my options?
If you aren’t able to register for a course this session, you’ll continue to be eligible for the next session of Driver Z when it becomes available. You’ll automatically be rolled forward to the next session – there’s nothing else you need to do.
