The driver certification process is a qualifier for reserving or driving any Wells College vehicle through the Transportation department. Employees and students wishing to be certified must complete our Driver Certification Application. Once this is completed, the Transportation Supervisor will contact applicants and set up a time for training. Those wishing to be certified should anticipate a 14-day period to complete the application review, DMV check (see below for specifics), written test, and schedule and complete the driving test. Applicants will have the option to apply for certification to operate the following vehicle types: sedan, minivan or full-size van.

All applicants must have a valid US driver’s license. If applicant has an out of state driver license, they will need to request a copy of their driver's abstract from their home state DMV office. A copy of the abstract should be submitted along with the Student Driver Certification Application.

The driver certification is valid for one calendar year. Each driver is responsible for contacting the Transportation Office with updated information related to their driving record during that period. The driver certification privileges may be revoked if the driver fails to report updates to their record during the certification period, has 3 or more moving violations/preventable accidents in the last 3 years or 2 or more moving violations/preventable accidents in the last 1 year.

The Transportation Department reserves the right to revoke driving privileges at the discretion of the Transportation Supervisor with final appeal of such decision to the Director for Campus Security.
