The Department recently received several Instructor applications that included unapproved Instructor Training Provider endorsements. Curriculum providers must approve anyone wanting to be an Instructor Training Provider (ITP) for their program.
Motorcycle Instructor Training Provider Requirements:
- An individual may not offer or conduct an instructor training course unless the individual holds an instructor training provider license issued by the department.
- A Motorcycle Instructor who wants to add the Instructor Training Provider endorsement to their license must hold a current certification from an approved curriculum provider, and they must include a copy of the certificate when they apply for the endorsement.
- An individual must hold a current instructor license before they can add the ITP endorsement to their license.
Reporting Requirements
- A motorcycle instructor with the instructor training provider endorsement must do the following for each instructor training course they provide:
- Report to the department, by the fifth business day following the end of each course, information relating to each trainee enrolled in the course, including:
- Each trainee’s full legal name as shown on the trainee’s driver’s license, or other form of identification acceptable to the department; and
- Whether each trainee successfully completed the course.

Removing the Instructor Training Provider Endorsement
If you have applied to add the ITP endorsement to your instructor license without first having been approved by the curriculum provider, the Department will not issue a refund once the application is processed, and the application denied. Be sure you qualify for the endorsement before applying!
