Course Description

Professional or vocational drivers who take this eLearning will acquire knowledge, beliefs and habits that save fuel, while reducing carbon emissions, exhaust pollution, and added maintenance and lifecycle costs in both their personal vehicle(s) and work vehicle(s).


Earning an IDLE FREE for our kids® Certificate will demonstrate an individual’s commitment to idle reduction skills. These skills are valued highly by corporate fleets seeking to:

  • Reduce fuel and downstream costs.  
  • Be seen as health and environmental leaders in business and the communities they serve.

Going IDLE FREE can act as a ‘keystone habit’ for other eco-driving beliefs and behaviors: reducing speed, harsh acceleration and braking.
