3. Complete evaluations.

If your application is approved, you will receive written approval to schedule your evaluation with an ICBC driving school inspector (DSI). The inspector will provide comments and may give suggestions for improvement.

4. Receive approval.

After successfully passing the evaluation, you will receive written results from your evaluating DSI, and an original Assessment Officer Certificate of Qualification (AOCQ) with approved designations by mail. Note that processing time vary throughout the year.

When you receive your AOCQ, you can begin conducting assessments and certifying drivers at an ICBC-authorized driver certification facility.
