FAQs

Is the Beginner Drivers Education Course MTO-Approved?

Yes, the Beginner Driver Education Course offered by Transport Training Centres of Canada is MTO-Approved. As per the MTO, you have 1 year to complete the course from the day that you start.

What is the difference between the G1, G2 and G licence?

Ontario has a process called “graduated licensing.” It is designed to give new drivers time to practice and gain driving experience over time.

Once you pass your eye and written tests, you get a G1 licence. Before you can get a full G licence, you have to:

  • finish two learning levels: G1 and G2.
  • pass two road tests

Normally, the process takes 24 months to complete. Graduates of an MTO-Approved Beginner Driver Education (BDE) Course provider like TTCC may be able to finish the full process in only 20 months. You have up to five years to finish the whole process. After five years, if you do not get your full G licence, you will need to start over.
