Complete Progress AssessmentInstructionsThe Complete Progress Assessment should be used once all the individual exercises are completed andsigned off. It is an overall evaluation of the new driver’s progress.The assessment can be photocopied and used as often as needed. Score each activity and total eachsection as it is completed. The goal is for the learner to earn a mark of good or fair for every skill.Limit the assessment time to one to two hours to ensure the learner does not become too tired. Areasnot covered in the first assessment can be covered the next time out. It is not necessary to complete theassessment in one session.Assessing PerformanceA Good assessment score is achieved when the skills are completed safely, smoothly, and withoutdisrupting other vehicles or pedestrians.A Fair assessment score is made when the skills are not performed as well as they could have been, butare done safely with little or no disruption to traffic or pedestrians.A Needs Practice assessment score is made when the learner’s performance is poor and unsafe, and couldor does interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians.A space for comments is provided below each section.Date: __________________________104
