DOE
does away with DE1 form for driver’s ed
Districts will no longer be required to
submit the DE1 form, which identified the qualifications of its
driver’s education instructors. Instead, the Department of
Education will generate the necessary information from its
database and provide it directly to the state’s Driver’s
Licensing office and exam stations. The list of properly
authorized instructors will be updated twice a year.
“We rarely get the chance to eliminate
paperwork for our constituents, so we are happy to be able to
streamline this process,” said Melody Schopp, director of the
department’s Office of Accreditation and Teacher Quality.
Districts still will be responsible to
ensure that each person teaching driver’s education has a
current teaching certificate with the driver’s ed endorsement,
and has a valid driver’s license. However, they won’t need to
report that information to the state.
