119.03 [Comment: For dates and availability of material incorporated by reference in this rule, see paragraph (A) in rule 4501-8-21 of the Administrative Code.] (A) No school shall offer behind-the-wheel training programs for persons with a disability unless that school employs an instructor who is certified by the director to provide training for persons with a disability. (B) No instructor shall provide behind-the-wheel training to a student with a disability unless that instructor has been certified by the director to train persons with a disability. (C) A medically based hospital or rehabilitation facility that offers instruction for beginning drivers with a disability shall appoint an authorizing official who applies for a driver training school license for each driver training facility or school it operates. The school may offer only behind-the-wheel driver training and may refer students to another licensed driver training school for the required theory instruction. The school shall also employ instructors certified to provide driver training instruction for drivers with a disability, and only certified instructors may provide driver training. (1) The authorizing official or adult training coordinator of the driver training school at a hospital or rehabilitation facility shall maintain complete records of each student's training at that school. For a hospital or rehabilitation facility that does not supply the required classroom training, the authorizing official or adult training coordinator copies all records produced at that school for students taking behind-the-wheel training and forward those records to the driver training school that will complete each student's classroom instruction required by paragraph (A) of rule 4501-8-09 of the Administrative Code
bilitation facility that does not supply the required classroom training, the authorizing official or adult training coordinator copies all records produced at that school for students taking behind-the-wheel training and forward those records to the driver training school that will complete each student's classroom instruction required by paragraph (A) of rule 4501-8-09 of the Administrative Code. The authorizing official or adult training coordinator of the driver training school in which a student completed classroom training shall, upon the official's or coordinator's determination of the student's successful completion, issues the student a "Certificate of Completion." Each school's authorizing official or adult training coordinator maintains complete driver training records applicable to this student, including copies of those completed by another school for the same student. (2) For those students who have completed the abbreviated adult course through an online program, the hospital or rehabilitation facility that provides the behind-the-wheel instruction maintains the "Certificate of Completion of an Online Adult Program" for each student. The authorizing official or adult training coordinator of a medically based hospital or rehabilitation facility determines the student's successful completion and supplies a "Certificate of Completion" compliant with rule 4501-8-10 of the Administrative Code. (D) The medically based hospital or rehabilitation facility shall have sufficient space for storing files. If classroom driver training is not being provided at the medically based hospital or rehabilitation facility, the requirement for a classroom is waived for this type of facility. The facility shall comply with all other requirements of a driver training school under Chapter 4501-8 of the Administrative Code.
