Authorized Gordon Driver Information

Authorized Gordon Driver Information

Prior to being authorized to drive a college-owned vehicle (such as a large van or minivan), drivers must submit an application and complete the process to become an Authorized Gordon Driver. Here are the steps:

1. Apply to become an authorized driver using this Authorized Gordon Driver Application.
2. Read the Authorized Gordon Driver Policy.
3. Download this form (if your license is from NH, PA or WA, see note below): Authorization for Release of Information.
   • Complete the Authorization for Release Form (be sure it is signed) and email as a PDF attachment to [email protected]
   • In the subject line specify which category (minivan, large van, etc.) of authorization you are seeking.
   • IMPORTANT NOTE: If your driver's license is from Pennsylvania, New Hampshire or Washington State, you must obtain your own driving record using the online system for your state. Once you have obtained the driving record, please email it as an attachment to [email protected]. Here are links to request your driving record from your home state:
     • New Hampshire
     • Pennsylvania
     • Washington State
4. Wait for follow-up messages from Fleet Defense (our training vendor) and from GCDriver personnel.
5. If it has been more than three days with no reply, please email us again ([email protected]).
6. Take the Rental Vehicle Test on CANVAS. 
   • The test is available HERE. It is based on the policy (linked in step 2 above).
   • Your Gordon username and password are needed to access the test. 
   • You must score 100% on the test. Take the test as many times as needed; notify us at [email protected] when you have passed with a 100% score.
