Why Professional Driving Lessons Make a Difference
Safety First — Dual-Control Vehicles
Every Arrow vehicle is fitted with an instructor brake pedal. If your teen makes an error, the instructor intervenes instantly. You cannot replicate that level of safety in a family car.
Alberta Insurance Rebate
Completing an approved driving course entitles your household to a significant reduction in car insurance premiums. Most families recover the course cost within two years of savings.
Real Skills — Not Just Test Prep
Arrow's 95% first-try pass rate is built on a structured curriculum covering hazard recognition, highway driving, and winter techniques — skills your teen will use for life.
From Enrolment to Licence — How It Works
Book & Enrol
Choose your course online at /booking/ or call (780) 721-8282. We match your teen with the right programme and a certified instructor available in your area.
Theory Component
Your teen completes 15 hours of theory — in-classroom in Edmonton or online from home. Theory can run alongside in-car lessons for most students, keeping the overall timeline efficient.
In-Car Driving Lessons
15 one-on-one lessons with a certified Arrow instructor. Free pick-up from your door. Each lesson follows Alberta Transportation's approved curriculum and builds directly on the last.
Class 7 Knowledge Test (if needed)
Your teen must hold a valid Alberta Class 7 learner's licence before in-car lessons begin. If they don't have it yet, Arrow's Knowledge Test Prep course ($200 + GST) prepares them for the written test.

Completing an Alberta Transportation-approved driving course entitles your teen — and your household — to a significant reduction in car insurance premiums. In most cases, the annual savings recover the full cost of the course within two years.
Every major Alberta insurer recognises the Arrow completion certificate. Once your teen finishes their course, we issue the certificate immediately. You can submit it to your insurer and start claiming the discount right away — no waiting period.
The rebate applies at the Class 7 learner stage and continues once your teen upgrades to a full Class 5 licence. Over the years your teen remains on your household policy, the cumulative saving is substantial.

Which Course Is Right for Your Teen?
Standard Course — Most Popular
If your teen has had some practice driving with you and has a bit of confidence behind the wheel, the Standard Course is the right fit for teen driving lessons in Edmonton. This structured program takes that foundation and converts it into road-test readiness — 15 hours of classroom or online theory paired with 10 in-car driving lessons with a certified Arrow instructor who knows exactly what Alberta examiners look for. Most Edmonton teens with some parental practice behind them pass their road test on the first attempt.
More Road Time — Extra Confidence
If your teen is a nervous driver or needs more time behind the wheel before they feel ready to test, More Road Time is our most thorough teen driving course in Edmonton. Four extra in-car hours with a patient, certified Arrow instructor make a measurable difference — covering trickier intersections, highway driving, and the high-pressure scenarios that anxious teen drivers need repeated practice to master. Students who arrive at our teen driving school in Edmonton feeling shaky consistently leave road-test confident.
Brush-Up Lessons — Targeted Practice
Not every teen needs a full course. If your teen has had some lessons elsewhere but needs a few targeted sessions before their road test, Arrow's refresher driving lessons in Edmonton are the most flexible option available. One-on-one at $50 per hour — focused entirely on the specific skills your teen needs to work on, whether that is parallel parking, merging, or managing nerves under test conditions. Many Edmonton parents book a driving refresher course with Arrow when their teen switches from another school or needs a final confidence push.

Parents' Questions — Answered
In Alberta, teens can begin driving lessons at 14 years old. However, they must hold a valid Alberta Class 7 learner's licence before their in-car lessons begin. The Class 7 licence requires passing the Alberta knowledge test, which Arrow's Knowledge Test Prep course can help with.
Yes. Your teen must hold a valid Alberta Class 7 learner's licence to begin in-car driving lessons. If they do not have their Class 7 yet, Arrow's Knowledge Test Prep course ($200 + GST) prepares them for the written knowledge test.
We aim to keep the same instructor for consistency throughout the course. Mention this preference when booking and we will do our best to accommodate it.
For most lessons, we recommend allowing your teen to learn one-on-one with the instructor. Your instructor will keep you informed after each session. If you would like to observe at any point, speak to your instructor and we will arrange it.
This is very common. Arrow's instructors are experienced in teaching nervous young drivers. The dual-control vehicle means no situation is unsafe, and instructors are trained to build confidence gradually — never rushing a student beyond their comfort level.
