Driver Certification
Certification is required prior to any travel for university business purposes. If you are planning to drive your personal vehicle or rent a vehicle for university business, you will need to complete the at least five business days prior to your trip.
If you are planning to drive a university vehicle, you will need to complete the at least 15 business days prior to your trip. This additional time is needed to complete the driving record background check process and to schedule a one-on-one driving observation with Plant Services.
Please note: If your driver's license is issued from a state other than Oregon, additional paperwork may be required in order to request the driving record background check. For example, Washington drivers need to sign a release form to have their driving record checked. Please scan the completed and send it to plant services at plantservices@georgefox.edu.
Please see the Vehicle Reservations page for information on how to reserve a vehicle.
