After completing the form, simply click the “Submit” button. The P.R.I.D.E. Program will contact you to confirm your program registration. Please note that these programs fill up quickly and are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Your registration is not confirmed until the P.R.I.D.E. Program contacts you to confirm.

2026 P.R.I.D.E. Recertification Program:

For years, the Recertification Program has reviewed/refreshed the concepts, curriculum, instructional techniques and philosophies of the certification fleet driver instructor program. The course curriculum is designed to reinforce Signing Authority instructors’ skills and ensure continued high-quality delivery of driver training.
