BDE (Beginner Driver Education) is a course that is approved and recognized by the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) for Drivers in Ontario. This course can be completed through Driving Schools approved by MTO. A BDE course is designed to teach you the skills and attitudes you need to be a safe and responsible driver.
The BDE program consists of
– 20 hours of online instruction
-10 hours of home links (homework)
-10 hours of in-car training with the Instructor.
Once the course is completed, the student will be certified in the MTO system.
Once you are registered with Rightway Drivers Academy, BDE course students must first complete the 30-hour online portion before beginning in-car training with their instructor. Non-BDE students can start in-car lessons immediately. Lessons can be booked for 60 to 120 minutes, with a maximum of 120 minutes per day in accordance with Ministry standards.
10 hours of In-car training is usually enough, but every student is different. Student always has the choice to take more than the required lessons until they are ready and confident to go for the Road test.
We encourage our students to follow their instructors’ advice and feedback. We also recommend practicing at home.
