Instructor’s Name: Have the instructor who conducted the classroom instruction print his/her full legal name.

Student’s Name: Have the student print his/her full name; no nicknames or abbreviations.
Student’s Customer Number: Have the student enter the learner’s permit number.
Time In: Have the student record the time that he/she arrived for class. Students are not allowed to sign in for another student.
If a student arrives late, the time must be recorded reflecting the actual time of arrival. This will assist you in determining how much missed time the student must make-up prior to issuance of a certificate of completion.
Time Out: Have the student record the actual time that he/she completed the training for that date, prior to leaving. Students are not allowed to sign out for another student.
If a student leaves early, the actual time that the student left for the day must be recorded. This will assist you in determining how much missed time the student must make-up prior to issuance of a certificate of completion.
