State Farm® and the National Safety Council are working together to help improve your driving skills by offering the NSC Defensive Driving Course. These classes provide a refresher course in the driving laws in your state and teach you strategies that may help you avoid collisions and traffic violations. You can take the course online at your own pace or in a classroom setting. Once successfully completed, a certificate must be presented to your State Farm agent.

The course is presented in six sessions:
Classroom Course

Who and what is National Safety Council (NSC)?
The nation's leading safety advocate for more than 100 years, the National Safety Council is a nonprofit organization with the mission of eliminating preventable deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the road through leadership, research, education and advocacy. NSC advances this mission by engaging businesses, government agencies, elected officials and the public to help prevent death and injuries. Visit us at www.nsc.org to learn more about NSC and our life saving mission.
How do I get my completion certificate after taking the course?
Once you've completed your online course, you can print your certificate immediately. If you take the course at an NSC Training Center, your instructor will give you a certificate after you've successfully completed the classroom course.
How much does the Defensive Driving Course cost?
The online program is $24.95, with 20% of the proceeds going towards NSC life-saving initiatives, including opioid misuse, teen driving, distracted driving and many others. Classroom courses do cost more. Cost varies based on what the training center chooses to charge. Please contact your training center directly.
How long does it take to complete the course?
The online course takes about 4 hours to complete (6 hours in New York). The classroom courses run 4, 6 or 8 hours in length, depending on your state. Contact your local training center to learn about course duration and cost.
