[redacted] registered for a Basic Riders Course (BRC) in an attempt to learn to ride a motorcycle and earn her motorcycle endorsement with the Department of Licensing (DOL)The BRC is a learn to ride program that we administer on behalf of the DOL that teaches non riders the basic operational skills of riding a motorcycle and then offer licensing testing as part of the trainingAlthough it is designed for the beginner some people need more time and on instruction when basic skills such as balance or coordination are well below the average beginner or when other factors such as fear or negative experience impact learningOther considerations are riders that have learning disabilities, age or just want or need more time to learn these essential balance and coordination skills When [redacted] contacted our office she was informed of our pre BRC as an option and she did not want any course that did not offer an endorsement with it so she signed up for the BRCShe was told what the class was and the skills she would need to demonstrate to be successful The instructor worked with [redacted] as much as the curriculum would allow and is required to maintain the standards and schedule set by the DOLWhen [redacted] was not able to demonstrate the skills needed to move forward in the class she was dismissed She was offered a new class at the same 50% tuition rate as her original classThe full tuition for a BRC is $250, her class was subsidized by the DOL and was only $She was not happy with this as a solutionIt was also recommended that she reconsider taking a pre BRC course to help her be more successful with her next attempt at the BRCShe was also informed by the instructor of which skills she would need to work on to be successful in riding a motorcycle Because we are an agent of the DOL we are required to follow DOL policy and cannot give free classes to students that come to the BRC without the needed coordination or balance skills to ride a motorcycleWe do have non-DOL courses that have more freedom to meet her needs but [redacted] expressed no interest in anything other a class that had an endorsement test included
