How do I register?
Book CMSP MTC at either of our San Jose locations here.
What must I bring to the first day of class?
A current, valid, government issued photo ID. This may be issued from California, any State or any Country
A signed waiver, emailed when you book your course
Proper riding gear for the range session (see gear question below)
Water in a reusable bottle and snacks
Pens and notepad
Can I take the MTC if I am under 21 years old?
Yes, if you are over 15½ and under 18, you must bring a photo ID and a parent or legal guardian to sign a waiver with you. Your parent must provide ID as well. Once the waiver is signed you are ready to participate.
How will the MTC benefit me?
Upon successful completion of the California Motorcyclist Safety Program MTC course, you will receive a DMV riding evaluation waiver, DL389. Successful completion of the course may waive the riding skills test at the California DMV. There is no guarantee of course completion and course completion does not guarantee safety.
If you are under 21 years of age and you want a California motorcycle license, you must successfully complete the course to get licensed.
