DWI Education Classes - First Offense

The Texas Code of Criminal Procedure requires persons (adults and minors) convicted of first offense DWI and receiving probation, to attend and successfully complete an educational program certified by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

The state of Texas has approved remote taught classes since the COVID pandemic. There are NO online (self taught) DWI Education Classes certified or authorized by the state of Texas.

The standardized DWI Education Program (often referred to by students as the DWI Class) is 12 hours in length and is designed to help DWI offenders increase their knowledge about alcohol and drugs as these substances relate to driving skills, to identify their own individual drinking/drug use and driving patterns, and to assist them in developing plans which will reduce the probability of future DWI behavior.

Specific course topics include alcohol/drugs and traffic safety problems, Texas laws relating to DWI, effects of alcohol/drugs on humans, alcohol/drugs and driving task abilities, chemical dependency, symptoms of dependency, sources of assistance, costs of DWI, and decision-making.

The DWI Class consists of a 12 hour program and is presented in three 4-hour sessions over 3 separate days.

Testimonials

These classes are informative and interesting. Here's what some of our recent students had to say:

"I have to admit, I wasn't looking forward to this class, but you made it fun and I learned a lot."
- Student from New Caney


"When I was in Driver's Ed, they talked about the dangers of drinking and driving, but there was so much they didn't tell us. I learned so much more in this class."
- Student from Clear Lake


"Thought you might like to know that John spoke highly of your program. He was glad he went and said that every kid should have to take it. You're doing a good thing!"
- Thanks, "the dad" E-mail from a student's father


"I learned so much that I probably never would have learned otherwise. I was involved in SADD in school and helped my mom with MADD events but so much of the information you taught and the stories really touched me. I have taken my notes that were taken in class and shared them with my husband and family. I just really wanted to let you know I enjoyed your teaching method and attitude towards all of us, it has inspired me."
- student from League City
