Fleet
Orientation and Driver Prerequisites
All
Fleet vehicles can only be driven by fleet-authorized drivers. The
authorization process involves two steps: attendance at a fleet
orientation class and submission of the prospective driver's history
report.
Fleet Orientation Classes
Fleet Orientation Classes are scheduled by the Fleet Coordinator.
Classes fill quickly, so drivers and organizations needing drivers
should plan well in advance to complete the class. Classes are
taught by Public Safety officers who have been trained in fleet
rules and
driving concerns. Drivers should allow at least one week to process
applications completed during the class to be reviewed and approved
before driving vehicles. Note: a driver must
have had a driver's license for at least one year before applying
to drive the College's
fleet vehicles.
Application Review
All prospective fleet drivers are required to complete an application
at the Fleet Orientation Class. This application includes information
about the driver and the driver's history.
Driver's History Submission
New fleet driver's cannot operate a fleet vehicle until they
have submitted a driver's history to the Fleet Coordinator. This
history must be submitted from the state in which their driver's
license has been issued. If the driver has had their current license
for less than a year and has had licenses from other states, s/he
must submit a driver's history from the previous state as well.
Note: It can take two weeks for this form
to be received. Drivers should to have the form mailed to them
and deliver it to the Fleet
Coordinator so the driver knows when this has arrived.
