Important Ministry (MTO) Regulations

Please read these mandatory requirements to successfully claim your BDE certificate.

1. Course Completion Time Limit

The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) requires all students to complete all classroom, homework, and in-car training modules within ONE YEAR OF THE STARTING DATE. No exceptions are permitted by MTO.

02

2. Certification Requirements

To qualify for official MTO certification, all students must complete at least 20 hours of classroom learning (or online BDE theory), 10 hours of homework learning links, and 10 hours of 1-on-1 practical in-car training.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear, direct answers regarding Ontario licensing requirements, course structure, and tests.

The classroom (online theory) takes 20 hours, plus 10 hours of homework. The practical training takes 10 hours in the car. You can complete all portions in a few weeks depending on your availability. However, MTO regulations mandate that the entire course must be fully completed within one year of your registration date.
There are two major benefits: 1. You qualify to take your G2 road test early, in just 8 months instead of the standard 12 months. 2. You receive an official certificate recorded in the MTO database, which insurance companies recognize for premium discounts (often up to 10-25% off depending on your insurance provider).
Yes! Our G2 and G packages explicitly include using our dual-brake, fully-insured instructor vehicle for your road exam. Driving the same car you practiced in greatly boosts your confidence and control during the test. We also offer this as an add-on for our standard BDE package.
Once you successfully complete all 40 hours of BDE training (20h theory, 10h home-link, 10h in-car), we will register your completion directly on the Ministry of Transportation database. You can pick up a hard copy of your Driver's Licence History (DLH) at any ServiceOntario location for a minor MTO fee, which serves as your official proof of BDE course completion for insurance purposes.
