Your Texas Driver's Education online course is designed to help you prepare for the official DPS test. The online course is divided into 12 chapters and takes a total of 32 hours. Each chapter concludes with a 10-question quiz, which you can retake until you get a passing score of 80%.
After you've completed your second chapter, you will be asked to apply for your permit. Once you apply and your parent gets their instruction log, you'll be able to fill in your permit number and keep moving forward. The course concludes with a 50-question final exam, and you'll need to get 80% correct to pass. By the time you finish your final, you'll be confident and ready to pass at the DPS!
Once you pass your final exam, we'll process your certificate of completion the same day. It will be mailed out to you immediately, for FREE! And if you want it quicker, you can choose an upgraded shipping option.
Be sure you hang on to your course completion certificate; you'll need it in 6 months when you apply for your driver's license. In addition to completing the 32-hour Driver's Ed course in Texas, you're also required to log 50 hours of behind-the-wheel training. Once you've done that, and you're at least 16 years old, you are ready to head down to the DPS and take your behind-the-wheel test to earn your Texas driver's license!
