WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUBSIDIZED AND UNSUBSIDIZED NOVICE?
• Subsidized Basic Rider Courses (BRC) can be provided to WA Residents at a discounted price due to funds granted to state certified motorcycle safety programs each year. Not all BRC classes are offered as subsidized because each school receives a limited amount of funds distributed among programs throughout the state. The main pre-requisite to register for a subsidized course is a valid WA State driver’s license. Residents under 18 years old are entitled to an additional discount. • Unsubsidized Novice classes are offered at standard market rate. There is no difference in the course except for the direct price to the student. All students registered in an unsubsidized BRC pay the full amount of the class fee regardless of where your driver’s license is from.
