Driver Education

The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education requires successful completion of the following courses to receive a Driver Education Instructor endorsement on a teaching certificate for grades 9-12. The first two courses (DRED 2010  & DRED 2020 ) are taught on-line during the Spring Semester. The remaining two courses (DRED 2030  & DRED 2040 ) are offered during the Summer Semester and have mandatory on-site commitments of 15 hours each for a total of 30 hours. These hours must be scheduled during the Missouri Safety Center’s Summer High School Driver Education program, typically during the month of June each year. If a student has been fully admitted to a bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, education specialist degree, or teaching certification program offered at UCM, financial aid can normally be used to help pay the cost to enroll for the above classes.
