The UM Vehicle Use Policy requires that all individuals who will be driving large passenger vehicles UM owned or other rentals must complete the Driver Safety for Campuses Course or hold a current CDL with a passenger endorsement. This assists The University of Montana in mitigating the risks involved in handling these large capacity vehicles.

You should provide your department with a photocopy of your certificate to keep on file to document that you have taken the course. This certification is good for three years at which time you will need to be recertified.
