Registration Information

Program Details: As you are aware the State of South Dakota Department of Education requires each school district to utilize this online training program to satisfy the requirement of 4 hours of annual School Bus Driver training for each of their Drivers. Each Driver must complete the required training prior to October 15, 2010. Documentation of this training will be required on your PRF’s (personal record form) due at that time. This program has been made available now to ensure each Driver has completed training prior to October 15, 2010. For more information or to sign up now to start training Drivers immediately, simply call (605) 207-0117 or e-mail gnllc@midstatesd.net G & N School Bus Driver Training.

How It Works: This online program was specifically designed to be easy to use and to effectively deliver the South Dakota required annual training. Each Driver can choose the topics of their choice and is required to complete 8 modules by watching the short video and taking the test following the video. Each module is valued at 30 minutes of completed training and earns credit toward the 4 hour requirement. These modules can be viewed at the Drivers convenience while the program automatically keeps records of completed modules and provides a report to the State of South Dakota Department of Education.

Information on G & N School Bus Driver Training

Recently the South Dakota Department of Education solicited proposals for School Bus Driver Safety Training. As a result of this process, G & N LLC was awarded the contract to provide this service.

We would like to introduce ourselves and provide some background as to who we are and our qualifications in providing this service. Both of the owners of G & N LLC are licensed school bus drivers. Dave Nicholas currently supervises student transportation services for the Gregory South Dakota School District as the Superintendent of Schools. Dan Guericke is a former School Superintendent and has had experience as the student transportation supervisor for the White Lake School District. Both owners have been involved with the safety training of school bus drivers for a number of years.

As a result of this experience, we felt that there was a need to deliver a personalized school bus driver training experience that can be accessed 24 hours a day from any site with high speed internet service. We have experienced bus driver safety training as both a driver and a participant and we feel that what we are offering is a product that will be of great value to both the bus driver and the bus driver supervisor.
