Your teen completes the required 24 hour online course here with Texan Driver. Note- after only the first 6 hours of instruction your teen can take the online test and get their certificate.

#4 Get the Learner Permit

Take the certificate to your local Texas DPS office to obtain your Learner's Permit.
