If you do not have an account you will need to register for an account on the Pupil Transportation Database before registering for a course. If you are taking the Level I to transport 16 or more passengers (CDL required vehicle) you will need to register for the 5-hour Level I class. (You will only be able to register for this after successful completion of the 2 online courses. Registration for those classes is available through the Pupil Transportation Database.)
