The Transportation Office at UWSP offers an "in-house" Van Driver Training Program. The training program is required by individuals that will be using the 15 passenger vans.

No one under 25 years of age is allowed to operate a 15 passenger van.

 It is also strongly recommended that individuals (faculty, staff, or students) that drive larger vehicles (cargo vans, cube vans, etc.) as a requirement of their employment take advantage of the training program.

The Van Driver Training Program is comprised of the following steps:

  1. Completion of the Van Training Program Registration Form.
  2. Completion of a Vehicle Use Agreement (Faculty/Staff) or a Student/Volunteer Authorization Form (students), if you do not have one on file with us.
  3. View the "Coaching the Van Driver" video tape (1 1/4 hours).
  4. Complete the written quiz on the back of the Registration Form with 80% accuracy.
  5. Complete the Behind-the-Wheel session which lasts approximately 1/2 hr.

All necessary forms are available in the Transportation Office located in Room 112 Maint. & Materials Building or by calling 346-2884.

The VCR tape is available at the Instructional Materials Center (IMC) located on the 3rd floor of the Learning Resource Center. The tape must be viewed there.

After viewing the tape and completion of the quiz, please contact the Transportation Office at 346-2884 to schedule a Behind-the-Wheel Session.
