Clarkson University Driving Policy

The Clarkson University driving policy is a policy designed to cover students and employees traveling on university business. To be covered under the university driving policy and insurance you need to apply to become an approved driver and utilize a rental vehicle or a vehicle from the university’s fleet. Please see the attached policy which outlines university requirements to become a university driver.  

To apply to become a university driver you need to complete the attached application and email it to Human Resources at jbesaw@clarkson.edu, or fax to 315-268-4437, along with a copy of your driver’s license . Once received, your information will  be processed and  Human Resources will receive a copy of your motor vehicle report.  If your motor vehicle report meets university standards outlined in the policy, you will be required to take the driving training on moodle. The training is composed of two courses with a quiz at the end of each course. If you pass both quizzes, please sign the attached policy and email it to Human Resources at jbesaw@clarkson.edu, or fax 315-268-4437. 

Once the signed policy is received you will then be added to the university’s approved driver list. To request a vehicle you can contact Facilities and Services. Any charges associated with the process are charged to the budget number provided on the application. 

The link to the application and policy is also included on the HR Website

Please note that from time to time, additional mandatory training may be required.
