Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Start

Create your account and begin the Texas Adult Driver Education Course immediately. The course runs through text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically on the server after each section, so you can log out and pick up exactly where you left off without losing anything.

Complete the 6 Hours

Work through all required course material covering Texas road signs, traffic laws, and alcohol and drug content. There is no daily hour cap, so you can power through it in one day or split it across several sessions. Every section builds toward the final exam that substitutes for the DPS Class C written knowledge test.

Pass the Exam and Get Certified

The final exam is 30 multiple-choice questions covering road signs and road rules. Score 70% or higher and you complete the 6 hours state requirement. Your digital ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion is issued immediately. Bring that certificate to the DPS Driver License Office when you apply for your license.

In-Person Classroom Option

Traditional classroom driver education still exists in Texas but requires scheduled sessions, fixed locations, and travel that adds time before you can apply for your license.

Travel Required

Hunt County residents may need to drive to find an available licensed classroom provider.

Same Certificate Result

A classroom course also produces an ADE-1317 certificate, but the path takes longer.

Same DPS Driving Test

Regardless of how you complete driver education, the in-person driving skills test at DPS is still required.

Questions About the Texas Adult Driver Education Course

Who is required to take this course in Texas, and who takes it by choice?

Texas law requires anyone between 18 and 24 applying for their first Texas driver license to complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course before submitting their application. That requirement comes from Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84, specifically Section 84.503, which governs adult driver education enrollment. Adults 25 and older are not required to take the course, but completing it lets them skip the DPS Class C written knowledge test at the office. For Hunt County residents in either group, finishing the course online means you arrive at the Greenville area DPS Driver License Office with one major step already behind you. Enroll now and check the course requirement off your list.

Does passing the course final exam mean I skip the written test at the DPS office?

Yes. The 30-question final exam built into the Texas Adult Driver Education Course substitutes for the DPS Class C written knowledge test. Under current Texas DPS requirements and TDLR guidelines established in Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84, passing the course final exam at the required score satisfies the written knowledge test requirement. You do not retake a written test when you walk into the DPS Driver License Office. The in-person driving skills test is a separate step and still required at the DPS regardless of how you completed driver education. Once you pass the final exam here, bring your ADE-1317 certificate to the Greenville area DPS office and focus on the road test.

How long does the course take, and can I finish it in one day?

The Texas Adult Driver Education Course requires 6 hours of TDLR approved instruction, which is the state-mandated minimum under Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84. There is no daily hour cap on this course, so finishing all required material in a single day is entirely possible if your schedule allows it. You can also split sessions across multiple days since progress saves automatically to the server after each section. Hunt County residents who work full-time often log in across two or three evenings and finish within a week. Log in, work through the lessons and section quizzes, pass the final exam at 70% or higher, and your ADE-1317 certificate is ready to take to the DPS.

What is the ADE-1317 certificate and what do I do with it at the DPS?

The ADE-1317 is the official Certificate of Completion issued under TDLR rules when you pass the Texas Adult Driver Education Course final exam. Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84 establishes this certificate as the document that proves you completed state-approved adult driver education. You bring the ADE-1317 to the Texas DPS Driver License Office when you apply for your first license. The Greenville area DPS Driver License Office is the location Hunt County residents use for their license application and driving skills test. Without this certificate, a first-time applicant between 18 and 24 cannot complete their application. Pass the final exam, download your ADE-1317, and bring it with your other required documents to the DPS.

Do adults taking this course need to log behind-the-wheel practice hours?

No. Adults taking the Texas Adult Driver Education Course are not required to log behind-the-wheel practice hours as part of this course. That requirement applies to the teen driver education program, not the adult course governed by Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84 and Section 84.503. The adult course is classroom instruction only, whether completed online or in person. The in-person driving skills test at the DPS is still required and is a separate step handled directly at the Greenville area DPS Driver License Office. You schedule that road test after you complete the course and have your ADE-1317 certificate in hand. No practice hour logs, no driving record forms, just the course, the certificate, and the DPS road test.

Why would someone 25 or older take this course if it is not required?

The main reason is skipping the DPS written knowledge test. Under current Texas DPS requirements and TDLR guidelines in Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84, adults 25 and older who complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course and pass the built-in final exam do not have to take the Class C written knowledge test at the DPS Driver License Office. For Hunt County residents who moved to Texas from another state and are getting their first Texas license, that is a real time saver. The Greenville area DPS Driver License Office handles both the license application and the driving skills test. Finishing the course means you walk in with your ADE-1317 certificate and go straight to scheduling the road test rather than sitting through a written exam at the counter.
