Before you buy
The practical questions, answered plainly.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. When you finish the course and pass the assessment, your certificate of completion is available to download immediately from your dashboard. It carries a verification number.
How long do I have access?
Access to this course does not expire. It is self-paced, so you can start, stop and resume whenever you like, and your progress is saved between sessions.
What if I fail the assessment?
You can retake it. Knowledge checks run through the course and the final assessment draws from a larger question bank, so a retake will not simply repeat the same questions.
Does this replace hands-on training?
This course delivers the knowledge portion. Site-specific procedures, equipment-specific practice and any required practical evaluation remain your employer's responsibility, and the course is explicit about where those lines fall.
How often does this training need repeating?
The recommended refresher cadence for this topic is 1 year. Retraining is also triggered by a change in process or equipment, or by an observed gap in an employee's knowledge.
Can I buy this for my whole crew?
Yes. Choose "My team" on this page to buy seats instead of a single enrolment. You become the team administrator, assign seats from your Team Portal as people join, and volume pricing applies automatically at 5 seats and again at 10.
Frequently Asked Questions
What will I learn in the DVIR - Daily Vehicle Inspection Reporting course?
You will learn how to perform and document pre-trip and post-trip inspections and complete a Driver Vehicle Inspection Report. It covers identifying and reporting defects, when a written report is required, and the driver's role in verifying repairs. The content references the FMCSA inspection and DVIR requirements under 49 CFR.
Who should take DVIR training?
It is designed for commercial drivers, mechanics, and fleet safety staff who inspect vehicles or review inspection reports. Dispatchers and supervisors who manage vehicle readiness will also find it helpful. It suits anyone responsible for keeping vehicles safe and roadworthy.
Is this course available for teams?
Yes. You can purchase multiple seats for a crew or fleet so drivers can complete the same standardized training. Group seats make it easier to track and document completion across your team. Contact us if you need help setting up seats for a larger group.
Does the course include a certificate, and is it self-paced?
Yes on both. The course is fully self-paced and online, and you can download a Certificate of Completion when you finish. It works on mobile devices so drivers can complete it wherever they are.
