 Who must complete driver training?

• Any faculty, staff member, or student intending to drive a campus vehicle. There is no fee.

What do I need to do to complete driver training?

There are three parts that must be completed before you can drive any college vehicle: defensive driving class, hands-on assessment, and a driver’s record search.  

• Part 1: Defensive Driving Class. You need to complete only one of these options and provide a copy of your completion certification to the Campus Safety Department.
  • Option #1: United Educators Driver Safety Online Course – About 45 minutes to complete, completely online, offered at no charge to active Nazareth students, staff, and faculty. If you are prompted for a Affiliation ID, please enter 8A51Q688653.
  • Option #2: Many agencies provide a NYS DMV-approved Defensive Driving Class (also called a Point & Insurance Reduction Program or PIRP class). This 6-hour option gives you a 10% discount on your auto insurance for three years and up to 4 points may be reduced from your license. Any fees for this option are your responsibility and will not be paid/reimbursed by Nazareth College.

• Part 2: Hands-on Assessment: In small groups (up to 3 people), you will review the proper operation of college vehicles (including safety features), how to keep control of the vehicle, and how to drive defensively. You will be evaluated by a driving instructor of the college.
• Fall 2019 -The schedule for hands-on sessions will be posted in early August.

Please meet a few minutes early in the Campus Safety Office (21 Shults Center). Bring a copy of your driver's license.

• If you will be driving for Campus Safety (i.e. the Campus Shuttle), please contact Campus Safety directly to schedule training. These sessions will be scheduled as needed.

• Part 3: A search of your driver’s record (called a driver’s abstract) is required. This abstract has any violations/tickets, the status of your license, and any accidents you have been involved in. If you have excessive violations/tickets, multiple accidents, or an expired/suspended license, you may not be authorized to drive for Nazareth College.
  • If your license is from New York State, Campus Safety can obtain your driver’s abstract. You need to bring your license to Campus Safety so a photocopy can be made. There is no fee.
  • If your license is from another state, it is your responsibility to provide a driver’s abstract annually to Campus Safety. Typically this driver’s abstract is available through your state DMV system. In some states you can download your driver's abstract. There may be a fee, which is your responsibility and will not be reimbursed. (Sorry but international driver's licenses are not acceptable)

Am I an approved driver?

To verify that you are an approved driver, please contact the department/program you will be driving for or Campus Safety (21 Shults Center or 585-389-2850)

As seen throughout the United States and the entire world, active shooter events are occurring on college campuses. This is an uncomfortable event to think about but the reality is that everyone must be prepared. The Campus Safety Department offers active training sessions to give the Nazareth community the skills needed to respond to an active shooter threat. 

The 90-minute training reviews:

• The frequency of active shooter events in the US and specifically on college campus.
• Aspects of active shooter events
• The FBI run-hide-fight recommendations
• Discuss in detail when evacuation is appropriate and by what methods (run)
• Practice building barriers and securing any location (hide)
• Practice active physical response to a violent situation (fight)

This is an active, hands-on training event. You will practice the skills in a safe environment (with Nerf guns and soft objects to throw). At the conclusion of the training you will have developed a set of skills you can use to give you the best chance to survive an active shooter event.

• Classes are scheduled by demand. 
• Sessions are limited to 20 people.
• One option is for a training sessions for your department/office in your location.
