Any new driver, regardless of age, has to take a driver education course from a certified driver education school in Maryland. 

You have to be at least 15 years old to start the classroom portion of the program.

No. You can begin in the classroom without a Maryland learner’s permit. However, you will need your learner’s permit for the in car lessons.

The most convenient way to register is online. Choose a classroom location then pick the time and date of the course that best fits your schedule. You can also register via phone by calling 410-877-7100. Some locations offer in person registration. Please call in advance for available dates and times.

You will receive a “Welcome” email the day after you register with important details.

It’s your choice. Registering online has two payment options: in full with a credit card or Paypal. Paypal also offers no interest, 6 month payment plans. Additional payment options can be arranged by calling us.

The MVA requires that students attend the first day of the course before they can attend any other classes. After the first day, any missed classes can be made up during later sessions. After you miss the class, you can go into your online account to choose a make up class. 

MVA requires students to have “Class 1” as the very first class. You might be able to attend the first class in another session prior to beginning the rest of the course. Please call 410-877-7100 to find out about other options. We can work with you to fit the classes around your schedule.

As long as your account is paid in full and you have your learner’s permit, you can schedule the 6 hours of driving. You will schedule 3 lessons that are two hours each. 

You can schedule your driving lessons through your online account. Email us a picture of the front of your permit to service@premierdriversed.com. We will update your account and send you an email with Scheduling Tips.

Not if you pre-plan your timeline. Driving lessons are usually 4 to 6 weeks from the date that you schedule. The strategy is to schedule your driving lessons as soon as you register for class. 

You do not have to wait until you start class to schedule your driving lessons. Again, as soon as you register and are paid in full you can email us your learner’s permit and schedule your lessons. If you time it correctly, you could complete the two weeks of classroom and then have your driving lessons immediately following.

If you do not have your permit at the time you register, that is ok. Just be sure to allow 4 to 6 weeks when you do decide to schedule. 

Yes. We offer Priority Scheduling. If you need sooner driving lessons you will be placed on our Priority List. We will help you get sooner driving lessons. We do not want you to miss the first day that you can take your test. We will work very hard to accommodate your timeline.

Yes. We want our students and parents to be completely satisfied with our driver education program. If we are unable to resolve your concerns, we will give you a refund.
