The Motorcycle Skills Assessment Certification Program administered by the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) authorizes facilities to conduct a Motorcycle Skills Assessment of individuals holding a class 6 or 8 Learner's Licence. This assessment is conducted specifically by an Assessment Officer employed by the facility who has been authorized by ICBC to conduct Motorcycle Skills Assessments.  Upon successful completion of an assessment, ICBC may waive the required Motorcycle Skills Test conducted by an ICBC driver examiner in order for ICBC to remove the restriction 11 from the Class 6 or 8 Learner's Licence (Restriction 11 restricts a learner to riding only while supervised by an adult Class 6 motorcycle operator's licence holder; riding at speed not exceeding 60km/h; and not riding on freeway portions of highways 1 and 99).

Under a Certification Agreement and attached Schedule(s), the requirement of practical testing (Motorcycle Skills Test) by a Driver Examiner is waived where a trainee completes a specified theory and practical training curriculum and successfully qualifies on an assessment administered by the Training Facility. Upon completion of the course and assessment, the Assessment Facility provides the trainee with a Driver Certification  (MV2067) Form, which the trainee must present at a Driver Licensing Office in order to have the practical test waived.

Under the Certification Program, training assessments must be conducted to at least the same standards as Motorcycle Skills Tests conducted by ICBC Driver Examiners. ICBC Motorcycle Skills Test forms are thus used by Assessment Facilities to conduct their training assessments.
