A state license is the simplest proof that a school meets Georgia's standards for instructors, vehicles and lessons. Without it, the hours you pay for may not count, and your insurer may turn down the certificate.

How to check a Georgia driving school's license

In Georgia, driving schools are licensed through the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS).

  1. Search Georgia’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
  2. Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
  3. Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.
What Georgia requires
  • Teens 16 and 17 (Joshua's Law): 30 hours of classroom or DDS-approved online driver education, on a DDS-prescribed certificate. (source)
  • Plus 6 hours behind the wheel, which a simulator cannot replace. (source)
  • Defensive driving: a 6-hour classroom course at a DDS-certified clinic. DDS does not accept online driver improvement certificates for license purposes. (source)

Rules change, so confirm the details with the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) before you enroll.

Five questions worth asking
  • What is your state license number, and does it match the state list?
  • Are all of your instructors licensed or certified?
  • What exactly is included: classroom hours, behind-the-wheel hours, road test help?
  • What is the total price and the refund policy, in writing?
  • Will I get a certificate of completion, and can my insurer verify it?

Walk away if a school will not give you a license number, or offers a certificate without the full training.
