The Pre-Service School Bus Driver Training Program became operational June 1, 1978. Since 1978, the program has been expanded to include pre-service, the Ohio Advance School Bus Driver Classes, Inservice Programs, School Bus Driver Road-E-O events, and School Bus Rider Safety Program for Kindergarten through third grade students.
Organization
The Ohio Department of Education, Pupil Transportation Section, Division of School Finance is the fiscal agent for the Pre-Service program. A state supervisor is responsible for supervising and coordinating the statewide program.
The state is divided into eight regions. A county superintendent within each region serves as the region's fiscal agent. These eight county superintendents also function as an advisory committee to the state supervisor.
Each fiscal agent employs a school bus driver instructor to train prospective and recertifying school bus drivers within that region.
