The exam for obtaining a learning license can be taken online

A platform to virtually take the theoretical exam required in the learning licensing process would be available to citizens approximately in March.

This was reported by the EFE office in a note published by Notiseis, in which they pointed out that the designated Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTOP), Eileen Vélez, announced that due to the delay in online appointments to take the exam not only new shifts are opened, but a system is being set up so that it can be taught remotely.

“We have a project so that those who want to can take the digital exam. We’re going to give it at least until March, as we’re working on the platform so it can be launched,” he told the agency.

Currently, appointments to take the exam are awarded for July or August, which means the aforementioned delay.
