Here are the links to the Michigan SOS Bus Driver training manuals and materials.
BASIC Requirements: 3 requirements to qualify for a Michigan school bus driver "S" endorsement:
- Qualify for a commercial driver license with a passenger vehicle ("P") endorsement. This includes a knowledge and road skills test. Prior to the legislation, this was the requirement for school bus drivers.
- Pass an "S" endorsement written test covering topics such as loading and unloading, emergency procedures and knowledge of pertinent laws.
- Pass an "S" endorsement road skills test in a school bus of the same type the applicant will drive. (Current school bus drivers may be eligible to waive the skills test if they meet safety and experience requirements.)
The "S" endorsement fee is $5. It is in addition to any applicable driver’s license correction or renewal fees and driving skills test fees.
