Certificate of completion of a driving school: what is important to know

A certificate of completion of a driving school is a state document that has legal force and confirms that the student has fully completed the vehicle control training program. This document is issued by the driving school after completing the entire training program and passing internal exams.

The certificate itself is only confirmation of completion of training and does not give the right to drive a car. The final document - a driver's license - is issued by the traffic police. You can take the traffic police exam immediately after receiving your certificate.

Validity period for driving school completion certificate

This certificate, unlike a medical certificate, does not have an expiration date. Another question is that a situation often arises when a student who has been trained in a driving school relaxes after passing the exams and puts off taking the exam at the traffic police for a long time. After contacting the traffic police, the owner is perplexed why government officials refuse to accept this document and ask for its confirmation.

Accepting certificates with a long statute of limitations (from six months) is a risk for traffic inspectors. Recently, many scammers have appeared who sell fake certificates with a long statute of limitations. This complicates the work of traffic police officers and requires examinations. The function of establishing authenticity is not part of the work of traffic inspectors; it rests entirely with the unfortunate student who did not submit the document on time.

The driving school may not retain graduation information or may eventually simply close down. In this case, the educational institution is not responsible for preserving archival data. Therefore, to avoid problems, sign up to take the exam at the traffic police immediately after completing your studies: you won’t have to confirm a medical certificate, and they won’t find fault with your certificate of graduation.

How to avoid problems

To avoid getting into an awkward situation and having to relearn again, follow a few rules. No matter how busy you are, put everything aside and take the exam at the traffic police, after which you will receive your license. In the event that you are not able to pass your license due to your location or urgent move to another city, collect and save all the necessary documents: a certificate of completion of a driving school, a medical examination report, a copy of the registration of the group list in the traffic police with a stamp, as well as a copy of the license driving schools.

After graduating from a driving school, in order to hone your driving skills, it is better to buy a used car. A used car may be sold with problems: incorrect mileage, traffic police restrictions, liens, repair work and other problems.

The Autocode service will tell you the entire history of the car in 5 minutes: from the number of owners, mileage to accidents and calculation of insurance repair work. For verification, you only need the vehicle's license plate number.

We have also prepared a whole section of articles in which we tell in detail how to buy your first car and what you should be wary of when choosing a used car. Read reviews of used car models from different years on our blog. We also run a Youtube channel where you will find many useful episodes.

How long are documents from a driving school valid?

Before taking the exam at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate to obtain a driver's license, one of the main documents that must be provided is a document confirming training at a driving school.

Let's take a closer look at the current range of issues related to regulatory support for completing training at a driving school.

First of all, let’s find out what a driving school graduation document is. And also what is its legal basis and for what period does it apply.

After this, we will consider the types and specifics of driving schools, as well as various aspects of monitoring their licensing.

Features of a certificate of completion of a driving school as a legal document

From a legal point of view, a document confirming completion of a driving school is a regulatory document.

It is regulated by regulations governing activities in the educational field.
Therefore, the main legal basis regulating the validity of the document on graduation from a driving school is the Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, 273-FZ.

According to the provisions set out in Art. 60 of this law:

“Persons who successfully pass the final certification are issued documents on education and (or) qualifications, samples of which are independently established by organizations carrying out educational activities.”

In other words , a document issued by an accredited educational institution is a state document and confirms receipt of a certain qualification.

Therefore, in terms of its status, the certificate of completion of a driving school is identical to the Unified State Examination certificate, diploma, certificate, and many other documents on graduation from educational institutions.

But, unlike documents that allow you to immediately begin your professional activities, such as diplomas, certificates, etc., a certificate of completion of a driving school is not a document giving the right to drive a vehicle.

How long is a certificate of completion of a driving school valid?

The certificate of completion of a driving school has no statute of limitations. We have already said above that it is a state-issued document issued by an accredited driving school.

In essence, a certificate of completion of a driving school confirms the fact that you have completed training at a driving school..

This is where its legal value ends, and therefore does not require a certain statute of limitations.

But it’s worth mentioning right away that this fact does not negate the fact that the traffic police may require the authenticity of a certificate of completion of a driving school.

Therefore, it is worth further taking a closer look at the features and specifics of various driving schools.

Conditional types of driving schools and their specifics

Regardless of the type of driving school, the main and mandatory requirement for a driving school is that it has a license, giving it the right to provide training.

In addition, its curriculum must be relevant and consistent with modern requirements for training in a driving school.

Let's look at the main types of driving schools:

  • State driving schools. They belong to state-type driving schools, so there is hardly any need to doubt the authenticity of the license giving them the right to provide training . The main advantages of public driving schools:
  1. Extensive teaching and practical experience . As a rule, state driving schools, created back in Soviet times, have been operating for decades.
  2. They are distinguished by a traditional and thorough approach to the presentation of educational material.
  3. They have proven and experienced specialists with extensive teaching experience.

Flaws:

  1. The inertia of the educational process often manifests itself in the irrelevance of educational material. Simply put, the training process is based on outdated car models.
  2. As a rule, the material and technical base is worn out . Outdated car park.
  • Automotive schools created within the framework of a particular educational institution.

Advantages:

  1. Convenience of combining the process of basic training with training to obtain a driver's license. As a rule, they are very convenient for students of these educational institutions, allowing them to obtain rights without interruption from the main educational process.

Flaws:

  1. Intended for training students of the educational institution within which the driving school was created. Therefore, getting outside students to attend training can be problematic.
  2. Insufficient and inadequate funding . Performing an auxiliary function, a driving school can be financed by an educational institution on a residual basis.
  3. Worn-out material and technical base.
  • Private commercial driving schools.

Advantages:

  1. Driving training is their main professional activity.
  2. Due to the highly competitive environment in this area , we are constantly trying to improve and improve the educational process.
  3. They have good funding.
  4. Good financing allows you to have a high-quality and modern material and technical base . This is evident in the availability of a modern vehicle fleet, good quality premises and classrooms for theoretical studies.
  5. The presence of a flexible and adaptive educational process allows taking into account the individual characteristics of students.
  6. Availability of current licenses and permits for educational activities.

Flaws:

  1. In pursuit of profitability , some opening private driving schools may recruit insufficiently professionally proven personnel into their staff.
  2. There are frequent cases of fraud on the part of institutions that act as driving schools, but do not have the necessary licenses and permits to carry out educational activities.
  3. The possibility of a short-term existence of a driving school due to certain market reasons. In other words, if there is insufficient profitability, the driving school may close at any time.

The “City of Trust” program about the illegal activities of driving schools without a license

As can be seen from the comparison of the specifics of driving schools discussed above, the main requirement when choosing a driving school is that it has the necessary license to carry out legal educational activities.

After all , having a license ultimately determines that the certificate of completion of a driving school received at the end of training will be a state-issued document and confirm the fact of completing training at a driving school.

In turn, the absence of a license puts the “educational institution” outside the law, which means that the certificates issued by it will be fictitious and invalid .

As a result, those people who graduated from such “educational institutions” will not be able to obtain access to the traffic police exams.

Therefore, the importance of the issue of monitoring such fictitious driving schools is quite high and relevant.

In this regard, on April 16, 2015, the Moscow Trust TV channel aired the program “City of Trust.”

Dedicated to monitoring the illegal activities of unlicensed driving schools, the City of Trust program helps identify fraudulent driving schools that, despite lacking the necessary licenses and traffic police reports, continue to recruit students.

In addition, the program discusses the issue of what a person needs to do if he has become a victim of such an “educational institution.”

The discussion is conducted jointly with invited experts and officials exercising control in this area.

What will help in restoring or confirming the certificate?

If you lose your driving school certificate, there are the following main ways to restore it:

  • A written appeal to the management of the driving school in which the person previously received training, in order to obtain a duplicate certificate of completion of the driving school.
  • A written application to the traffic police in order to access the database and archives in which data on a person’s training in a driving school can be stored.

Thus, a certificate of completion of a driving school is a state-issued document, and therefore requires care when choosing a driving school in which a person plans to study.

The certificate does not have a statute of limitations, but still requires a serious and responsible attitude towards its subsequent storage.

Validity period for driving school completion certificate

Validity period of the certificate

In recent weeks, all motorists have been in a state of shock. As of this month, many of them may lose their driver's licenses. If it turns out that the driving school where they learned to drive did not have the required license, your license will be taken away.

Several dozen criminal cases have already been opened against such driving schools. Investigative authorities are looking for graduates who studied there.

Our hero, Sergei Ivanovich, decided 3 months ago to send his son to study at a driving school. My son is studying well and is already traveling around the city with an instructor. Yesterday it turned out that my son plans to take the traffic police exam only in a year.

Sergei Ivanovich immediately called me to find out what was best for him to do.

There are several options in this situation. I'll start with the most common one. If you get your license from a driving school that has been operating for a long time, then you are lucky. These schools have long ago received all the necessary licenses. They also store information about their students.

This is very good for you. Even if you lose your certificate of completion, they can replace it for you. Traffic police officers treat graduates from these institutions much better. If you have the opportunity, go study here. The price for training may be slightly higher than that of competitors. But then there will be no problems.

The certificate of completion of these driving schools can be considered unlimited.

Closed driving schools


Many driving schools have opened in recent years. Due to high competition, they were forced to reduce tuition prices. However, many of them closed after one or two years of operation.

When a one-day driving school closes, all documents and archives about its students are lost. The traffic police will also not store information for a long time. It turns out that if you delay taking the exam, then you may simply not be admitted.

It will be very difficult to prove that you are right, because you will have nowhere to get a duplicate certificate.

In this case, you will have to go to court to try to protect your rights. But here too a problem arises. If the company you paid for your training closes, you will not be able to file a claim.

Fraud driving schools

The worst option for you is to go to a driving school that simply hands out certificates to everyone. Tuition in it may cost the same as in a regular one. The main difference is that you are not taught anything and there are no classes.

As a rule, people who do not want to undergo training enroll here. They just need a certificate to go take exams at the traffic police.

I discourage all my clients from studying here. If law enforcement agencies find out about these frauds, then a criminal case will be opened against the school management. But this is not the worst thing. All students who studied here will be deprived of their driver's licenses.

As a result, you will have to look for a new driving school, undergo training there, and take all the exams again.

What else needs to be done

If you still want to take the traffic police exam later, protect yourself from possible problems. The same rules apply to those who want to take the exam in another city:

  • receive a certificate and put all the necessary stamps on it;
  • make a duplicate of the certificate so you don’t have to deal with it later;
  • ask the driving school for a copy of the license with stamps;
  • obtain a medical certificate from all doctors.

Once you get your driver's license, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Yes, you need to retake the rules if you haven’t taken the city exam. Now many tests have changed, so a retake is required.

Hello, how many attempts are given to pass the theoretical and practical exams?

You can take it as many times as you like, but retaking the exam now costs a fee. Therefore, I recommend solving the tests several times to avoid mistakes. They are not very difficult, if you spend 1-2 days on them, then you can learn all the answers by heart. Of course, it’s more difficult in the city, so take a few extra lessons with an instructor before the exam if you’re not confident in your skills.

I took the exam at the traffic police on 04/04/19, there were 3 attempts to fail the exam, but they signed me up on 09/04/19, exactly six months since I took the exams. Will I have to take everything again (theory, circuit and city) or just the city that I can’t pass?

We'll have to retake the theory and the city again.

You can, unless your driving school's license has been revoked.

Contact the traffic police with the documents, you can take with you a birth certificate that contains your last name. The traffic police will make a request through the government services website to check your previous name.

What should you do if a minor accident happens at the race track?

It’s okay, also draw up a European protocol, all driving school cars are insured.

Good afternoon I work in a driving school, in our city there is no exam for some categories in the traffic police. Students will take the traffic police exam on their own, in other cities wherever they want. Tell me, is it necessary to submit information to our traffic police about students in these categories?

I graduated from a driving school more than three years ago, passed all the internal exams, I have training documents in my hands, but the driving school where I studied has already closed. Can I go to the traffic police with these documents and take the exam?

Yes, because you studied when the driving school was still open.

I graduated four years ago, can I go and take my traffic police license, taking into account the fact that there are changes in the traffic rules

Usually, at the end of the training, the driving school organizes an exam, which is attended by a traffic police officer. If you haven’t had such an exam, then you need to go to the traffic police yourself, they will set a date for you to take the theory and practical part of driving in the city. You will also be given details for paying the state fee.

Is it possible to pass a license 10 years after studying at a driving school?

It often happens that a person graduated from a driving school, but did not come to take the exams at the traffic police. And after some time, he finally realized that he wanted to get his license. What to do in this case: study again or will the past stage of training be counted?

Situation one. I have a certificate of completion of a driving school, but I have not passed the traffic police exams.

The easiest option for further developments is to have a diploma-certificate in your hands stating that you have completed training at a driving school and successfully completed internal tests. After all, it is indefinite. True, only if the educational institution has a valid license. In 2014, driver training was equated to vocational training, so many driving schools lost their licenses. After completing such courses, you are not allowed to take exams at the traffic police. This means that the certificate of completion of this educational institution will be invalid. We wrote about how to check the availability and validity of a driving school’s license in our previous articles.

If the educational institution continues to function successfully, and there are no problems with the license, then this greatly simplifies the matter, because there is no specific period between graduating from a driving school and passing the driving test. You can take it at least after 10 years, or at least after 40. The next step is to collect the necessary documents: a certificate of completion of a driving school, a driver’s medical certificate with a current validity period and a passport. Then pay the state fee for issuing a driver's license. It is 2,000 rubles and is paid once. The receipt is also valid when retaking exams at the traffic police. By the way, from January 1, 2017, the state fee can be paid on the government services website with a 30% discount. We recommend! 1400 versus 2000 rubles is still a significant saving. And finally, contact any traffic police department, since at the moment the exam is not tied to permanent or temporary registration. You pass the theoretical and practical exams - and your rights are yours.

What should those whose schools did not survive the 2014 reform do? Of course, most likely you will have to start studying again. But there is an option that someone will accept the old diploma. So if you suddenly categorically refuse to register for an exam in one traffic police department, don’t despair and try your luck in another department.

Situation two. I have a diploma-certificate of completion of a driving school, I tried to pass the exams at the traffic police, but did not pass and did not receive a license.

This option differs minimally from the previous one. However, if the driving school has problems with its license or has ceased to exist altogether, then recording the fact of passing the exams at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate in this case will guarantee that the certificate of completion of this driving school was current. According to unofficial data, the traffic police stores documents for three years, which means that if for some reason you did not pick them up earlier, then you need to contact the REO where you tried to pass your license and sign up there for a theory exam.

Situation three. I graduated from driving school, but my diploma-certificate of completion was lost.

If a driving school exists, you can obtain a duplicate certificate of completion: the educational institution is obliged to store information about all students within its walls. If the driving school is no longer functioning, then according to the rules, when closing its activities, they were required to submit all documents for students (certificates) and personal files to the Ministry of Education. We advise you to go to the Ministry of Education office in your area with your passport and ask them to open the archive and give you a copy of the diploma of completion of this driving school.

Situation four. I studied at a driving school, but did not pass the internal exam or did not reach it at all.

In the best case, if the driving school still exists and will meet you halfway, then you will make a small payment, pass internal exams and receive a “fresh” certificate of completion of the educational institution. This is definitely better than starting from scratch. It would be good to study the agreement that you concluded before enrolling - perhaps there is an answer to the question: “what to do if you did not complete your studies at a driving school?” Be persistent, but don’t make demands - in fact, the driving school doesn’t owe you anything, and has fulfilled its obligations to you.

If there are no traces of the driving school, then there is only one option - to undergo training again.

Situation five. I successfully passed the traffic police exams, but did not receive a driver's license.

It happens. The reasons are different for everyone: someone was drafted into the army, someone gave birth, someone got involved in business. There is only one result - the finished licenses will gather dust in the traffic police archives. But only three years. After this period, unclaimed documents should, in theory, be destroyed. But don’t despair and try contacting the REO where you took the exam. Maybe you'll get lucky. Otherwise, the traffic police test will have to be repeated. But it’s not so scary the second time, right? 🙂

We wish you to always finish what you start. And if the circumstances are not in your favor, then don’t be afraid to continue this path and finally become a real driver!

How long are documents from a driving school valid?

As a rule, people who do not want to undergo training enroll here. They just need a certificate to go take exams at the traffic police.

Upon completion of training, the potential driver receives a document confirming the very fact of this training - a certificate of completion of a driving school. It contains information about the institution that organized the classes, the number of subjects and hours of theoretical training, data on the intensity of practical classes and the name of the category, which is assigned in accordance with the course completed.

Upon completion of studies at a driving school, the future driver receives a special document that confirms his involvement in taking and passing internal exams. But there are situations when a student is not able to pass the traffic police exam on time.

In order to pass the theoretical and practical exam at the State Traffic Inspectorate for the right to obtain a driver's license, a special card is filled out, which, together with a passport or a document replacing it, is submitted to the examination commission.

Is it possible to pass a license 10 years after studying at a driving school?

What should those whose schools did not survive the 2014 reform do? Of course, most likely you will have to start studying again. But there is an option that someone will accept the old diploma.

Having passed the theoretical part, you can begin to demonstrate practical skills. It is carried out under the strict supervision of an inspector, who takes into account the number of mistakes you have made. For several violations, the examiner has every right to send you to retake.

How long is a certificate of training at a driving school valid, that is, in what time frame can you apply for a license?

Before taking the exam at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate to obtain a driver's license, one of the main documents that must be provided is a document confirming training at a driving school. Let's take a closer look at the current range of issues related to regulatory support for completing training at a driving school. First of all, let’s find out what a driving school graduation document is.

How long is a certificate of completion of a driving school valid?

It is not permitted to include a teacher or industrial training master on the examination committee.

As can be seen from the comparison of the specifics of driving schools discussed above, the main requirement when choosing a driving school is that it has the necessary license to carry out legal educational activities.

In other words, a document issued by accredited educational institutions (driving schools) is considered a state-issued certificate and fully confirms the fact of obtaining a certain qualification.

As can be seen from the comparison of the specifics of driving schools discussed above, the main requirement when choosing a driving school is that it has the necessary license to carry out legal educational activities.

For this reason, in terms of its status, the certificate of completion of a driving school is identical to the certificate of passing the Unified State Exam, diploma and other similar documents.

A certificate of completion of a driving school, like a matriculation certificate, has no statute of limitations. Be sure to save it along with the rest of your education documents. The certificate will be useful when replacing your license, or if your driver’s license is lost and you have to restore it.

If your height allows you to reach the pedals, then you can already study at a driving school. However, it is worth considering that you will be allowed to take exams at the MREO traffic police only upon reaching the age of majority, that is, 18 years.

In the best case, if the driving school still exists and will meet you halfway, then you will make a small payment, pass internal exams and receive a “fresh” certificate of completion of the educational institution. This is definitely better than starting from scratch.

Thus, the driving school itself develops a form of certificate of completion of a driving school or purchases ready-made certificates of completion of a driving school.

In recent weeks, all motorists have been in a state of shock. As of this month, many of them may lose their driver's licenses. If it turns out that the driving school where they learned to drive did not have the required license, your license will be taken away.

Is the document permanent?

There are several options in this situation. I'll start with the most common one. If you get your license from a driving school that has been operating for a long time, then you are lucky. These schools have long ago received all the necessary licenses. They also store information about their students.

It often happens that a person graduated from a driving school, but did not come to take the exams at the traffic police. And after some time, he finally realized that he wanted to get his license. What to do in this case: study again or will the past stage of training be counted?

For persons who do not pass the theoretical exam or one of the stages of the practical exam on the third and subsequent attempts, a repeat exam is scheduled no earlier than 30 days later.

Therefore, the main legal basis regulating the validity of the document on graduation from a driving school is the Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, 273-FZ.

But it’s worth mentioning right away that this fact does not negate the fact that the traffic police may require the authenticity of a certificate of completion of a driving school.

It is carried out under the strict supervision of an inspector, who takes into account the number of mistakes you have made. For several violations, the examiner has every right to send you to retake. If the exam was passed the first time, then the traffic police representatives will notify you of the date when you can get your cherished driver’s license.

Many graduates of driving schools who have successfully received a certificate, for one reason or another, cannot pass the exam at the traffic police, do not receive a driver’s license on time, and often wonder what the validity period of the certificate of completion of a driving school is.

The main purpose of a certificate of completion of a driving school is to allow the student to pass the final exams at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate.

Traffic police officers explain this ban by poor theoretical training of drivers, a large number of road accidents, and an irresponsible attitude towards passing the exam.
