Class 5 Driver Training For Adults and Young Drivers

Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) and University College of the North (UCN) have partnered to increase access to driver training programming in northern Manitoba. The UCN Class 5 Driver Training Program will help create safer roads and improve workforce development in this critical area of the province by bringing affordable and accessible training into communities across the region.

Driving Made Simple

Program Highlights:

  • 16 hours of in-class knowledge test preparation.
  • 4 hours of practical in-car lessons to prepare for road tests.
  • Fleet vehicles are included for student use from the start of their lessons until they complete their road test.
  • Flexible, supportive training designed to fit your needs.


Fleet Vehicle Use for Driving Lessons and Road Tests:

Fleet vehicles are included for student use after completing the following lessons:

  • 4-hour in-car driving lessons
  • 1-hour refresher
  • 5-hour MPI Mandatory Training


Road Test Support:

On the day of your road test, an instructor will accompany you and provide the UCN training vehicle for your test.

Note: Fleet vehicles are not used during the 16-hour in-class program as students have not yet achieved their knowledge permit.
