What does “100% Video Course” actually mean?
It means the entire 6-hour curriculum is taught through engaging, narrated video lessons. Unlike traditional online courses, you won’t have to read long pages of text. The only reading involved is for the short, multiple-choice quizzes at the end of each unit.
What makes the video course a better choice than a text-based course?
Many students find our video course more enjoyable and effective. The combination of animations, live-action scenarios, and clear narration helps make complex driving concepts easy to understand and remember. It’s the perfect option if you are a visual learner or simply prefer watching over reading.
Can I just listen to the course without watching the video?
The course is designed as a visual experience, with animations and on-screen text that are essential for understanding the material. While the narration is high-quality, you will need to watch the videos to properly follow the lessons and successfully pass the quizzes.
How long is the video course, and is it flexible?
The course is 6 hours long, as required by Texas law. Your progress is tracked by the total runtime of the videos you complete. The course is also completely self-paced, so you can log in and out whenever you like, and we’ll save your spot.
Is the course online, and can I watch it on my phone or tablet?
Yes, the course is 100% online and fully compatible with all modern devices, including computers, tablets, and smartphones. You can start on one device and switch to another seamlessly. All you need is an internet connection.
Are there still quizzes if it’s a video course? Is there a final exam?
Yes, each video unit is followed by a short, multiple-choice quiz to ensure you’ve understood the material. You must score 70% to pass, but you can retake the quizzes as many times as needed. And just like our other courses, there is no final exam!
How do I get my certificate after completing the course?
Once you finish the final video unit, you can choose your certificate delivery method. The fastest option is our Download & Print upgrade, which allows you to instantly download a PDF. Otherwise, a Stamped & Mailed certificate will be sent via standard USPS first-class mail at no extra cost.How does this video course help me dismiss a traffic ticket?
