LTO-NCR to hold free driving courses for student permit applicants

MANILA: For those who will apply for student permits this January 2023, the National Capital Region's branch of the Land Transportation Office (LTO) will offer free 15-hour theoretical driving course (TDC) sessions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What is the aim of the theoretical driving course (TDC) sessions of the LTO?

    In order to apply for a student driver's permit, the LTO is providing free services that are intended to teach prospective drivers the fundamentals of operating a vehicle, including traffic signs and markings, rules, and common decency.
  • How can student permit applicants enroll for the free TDC?

    On its official Facebook page, the LTO-NCR stated that the seats for the month had already been filled. For those who were unable to enroll in the free TDC seminars, there will be upcoming sessions for the next month that will be made public soon.

    On its official Facebook page, the LTO-NCR stated that the seats for the month had already been filled. For those who were unable to enroll in the free TDC seminars, there will be upcoming sessions for the next month that will be made public soon.

    Those applicants who were able to schedule an appointment were required to personally attend two-day seminars, according to the LTO-NCR.

    For prospective drivers, requesting a student permit is the first step in getting a license. They must obtain and complete an Application for Driver's License (ADL) form at the nearby LTO office, then present it with all the required documentation to the window designated for that form.

    After waiting for their name to be called, applicants have their picture and signature taken and pay the required fees. An applicant's student permission and an official receipt from the LTO branch are both given upon completion. A student permit can only be used for a year after it is issued.
