MADISON, WI (WTAQ) – The state Division of Motor Vehicles says that a Green Bay-area driving school has shut down.
DMV officials were notified last week that Excel Driving Center would be closing. The agency says that it affects about 250 students at different levels of training.
Bureau of Driver Services supervisor Deb Kraemer said they’re working with other driving schools in the area to figure out ways students can complete their training.
The DMV says it will contact students within the next two weeks with information on how to complete their training and how to recoup lost tuition payments through Excel’s state-required bond.
The DMV also offers these tips on choosing a driving school:
- Use accredited driver training schools. Check http://wisconsindmv.gov and search Driver Training Schools for a list of accredited independent driving schools in Wisconsin.
- Contact local schools as some public and private high schools still offer driver education programs.
- Explore online training options through South West Technical College’s accredited online course.
