How to verify a California traffic school’s DMV license.

Use the official California DMV directory to check the school’s identity, license, instruction type, and language. Then confirm your own eligibility and deadline with the court handling your citation.

Public enrollment is closed.

California Licensing Education holds a temporary traffic violator school license, E1008, issued October 16, 2026. Our public preview provides no court credit, and official completion reporting is not available.

“DMV-licensed” and “official DMV” mean different things.

A private traffic violator school is a separate business from the California DMV. A DMV license does not make the school a government website or mean that your particular citation qualifies for traffic school.

You may search for “DMV-approved traffic school” or “official traffic school.” The useful next step is to verify the provider in DMV’s own directory. DMV’s advertising guidance says a traffic violator school may describe itself as licensed by DMV, but must not advertise that the school is approved by DMV.

Check the record before choosing a school.

  1. Open DMV’s official school list.

    Follow the “Find a Traffic School” link from the DMV instructions. Begin there rather than relying only on a provider’s badge, advertising, or an old screenshot.

  2. Select the instruction type you need.

    Use the lookup’s type-of-instruction menu. For an online course, check the Internet option rather than assuming a classroom or home-study listing covers the same service.

  3. Search by license number or school name.

    For this school, search for E1008 or California Licensing Education. DMV also provides filters for language and location. If a search returns no results, remove unnecessary filters and try again.

  4. Match the details to the provider.

    Compare the school name, license, instruction type, language, and contact information with the website you intend to use. Confirm current availability directly with the school before paying.

  5. Resolve missing or inconsistent information.

    If the record cannot be found, or the license or course details differ, pause before enrolling and ask the school or DMV to clarify. A statement on this website does not establish what the DMV directory currently shows.

The court decides whether your case qualifies.

Checking a school’s license is only one step. Read your court notice, confirm traffic-school permission, pay the court’s required charges, and use the completion deadline assigned to your case.

Different rules can apply to particular violations and commercial-license holders. A school advertisement saying “court approved” does not replace the court’s decision for your citation.
