Welcome to EQUIP Driver Education!

Contract Validity: Your contract is valid for 12 months from the date you receive your instruction permit or until 18, whichever comes first.

Scheduling Tips:

  • Ensure a minimum of 10 hours of practice before the first drive.
  • A reminder text will be sent prior to drives.
  • Schedule immediately once the student obtains their instruction permit. Drives are booked 2-3 months in advance, so don’t wait. Example: If you schedule in March your first drive will be in late June or July. You have 12 months, so plan it out, and make sure to schedule ahead of time.
  • Schedule all three drives at once. Make sure there is a minimum of a two week gap between drives for practice.
  • Cancelling a drive is done within your confirmation email. It is your responsibility to cancel online, even if the company is notified some other way.

  • Reminder Texts: Sent to students, but you are still responsible for your drives.
