Driver training
Renew your driver training instructor licence
You must renew your instructor licence every 2 years. Here's how.
Did your licence already expire?
Deliver driver training without a valid driver training instructor licence is an offense under the Motor Vehicle Act (Division 27) and may result in sanctions or fines.
If your instructor licence has been expired for
Less than 2 years: complete the steps to renew a driver training instructor licence. If eligible, your licence will be reinstated.
More than 2 years: apply to ICBC's Instructor Challenge Program or re-apply to become a driver training instructor.
Eligibility
To be eligible for renewal, you must have less than 10 points on your driving record within the past 2 years.
Steps to renew your licence
1. Get a renewal package.
We typically mail a renewal package to you 6 months prior to your licence's expiration date. However, it is your responsibility to track your licence's expiry date and submit all required documentation to renew before that date.
If your licence expires in fewer than six months and you haven't received a package, contact us. You can also download the driving instructor application package and the police information check.
Moving?
If your address is changing, you must complete the change of address form.
2. Complete the renewal package.
The application package includes:
The application form
Police information check (with vulnerable sector (VS) screening) completed by RCMP or police within the past year
Instructor licence fee ($30; plus $15 per duplicate requested)
3. Submit your renewal package.
Processing times vary
Your renewal must be processed by ICBC before your licence's expiration date.
Submit your completed renewal package (original documents only) as soon as possible to ensure sufficient processing time.
