How do I
run teenSMART?
- After you complete the installation , you should see the teenSMART logo
on your desktop. Double-click the teenSMART
icon to start the program.
- You will first come to the teenSMART Home
screen. Click once on the Sign In button to begin.
- This will bring up the Sign In screen. Click
on the New button to register a new teen.
- You should now be at the Student Information
screen. The information you enter in this screen
is very important and will be used throughout
the program and at the end of the program for
your teenSMART certification. Be sure to check
the accuracy of all information, including your
auto insurance company policy number. Your name
and auto insurance policy number must match
auto insurance company records in order for
you to receive an insurance discount, if your
insurance company offers a teenSMART discount.
- If your family has purchased more than one
teenSMART program, you must register each teen
individually. To add additional teens, click
the New button and repeat the Sign In process
for each teen. When you are ready to take a
computer-based training session (CBT), click
on your name to highlight it, then click OK
to sign in.
- Once the student registration information
is complete, the INTRO button will be active
on the main teenSMART screen.
- Click on the INTRO button. Answer the survey
questions and complete the driving simulation
exercises.
- After the teen finishes the introduction,
the INTRO button now appears as a PRACTICE button.
You can always go back and repeat this session.
To move on, click the RUN CBT button that should
now be active.

Why do I need
a unique Student ID and Validation Code?
ADEPT Driver uses the teenSMART Student ID to
match your test results to your order. Your Student
ID and Validation Code can be found on the packing slip sent with
the program (if ordered directly from ADEPT).
If your Student ID and Validation Code are entered incorrectly, you will not be allowed to start the program. Please note that older versions of teenSMART do not require a Validation Code.

I
entered incorrect information in the Student Information
screen. Can I edit it?
Your Student ID, Validation Code and name cannot be edited once you complete your registration. Other information you enter in the Student Information
screen can be edited up until the point that you
successfully pass the certification test. You
will not be able to edit any information after
you successfully pass the certification test.

Can I complete
the CBTs in any order I want?
No. You must go through the CBTs in the order
indicated in the student progress screen in the
teenSMART program. A completed CTB will appear
in white. The next CBT to complete will appear
in white and will be underlined. You may repeat
any completed CBT as often as necessary.

Can I skip
right to the Certification Test?
No. You must complete all of the CBTs in order
and then enter the correct Parent-Teen Activity
Codes in order to take the Certification Test.

Can I exit
the program in the middle of a CBT?
If you exit the program in the middle of a CBT,
you will be required to restart that CBT from
the beginning the next time you run the program.
For this reason, we recommend that you allow approximately
20 - 30 minutes to complete each CBT.
