What is Subsidized vs. Non-Subsidized?

The State of Washington Motorcycle Safety Program contributes to the fee for Washington residents and active military. Seats in classes may be all subsidized, all non-subsidized or a mix. Check the schedule of classes for listings. During the summer months the weekday classes are subsidized and weekend classes are non-subsidized.

During the warmer/drier months (Mid May- end of September)  the weekend classes are non-subsidized- if you are military please call in for placement to one of these classes.

Subsidized class not available? Check Non-Subsidized for a sooner date.
