Same boat, it's not expiring, I guess they will announce that at some point. I msg'd learning curves and they said no details yet.

M2 Expiring But DriveTest Centres Closed

- Start date
You need to be a little careful with this. Some people greatly overestimate their ability, or just figure that they'll learn something. If you end up in a class with one or two people who are frequently dropping their bikes, it can be a long day.
The original question appears to have been answered already but I don't see the official word posted:
"We are extending the validity of government driver, vehicle and carrier products and services that expired on or after March 1, 2020. These will continue to remain valid and legal past the expiry until further notice. This is in an effort to help keep people safe, reduce the need for in-person visits to ServiceOntario and stop the spread of COVID-19. [...]"
I just hope the constabulary are aware and you don't get a sarcastic "what are you, a lawyer?" comment.

MCM did a great job managing that - the courses and instruction were setup in such a fashion that anyone struggling didn't hold back others who weren't as there was multiple "lanes" for many of the basic challenges, and then the course that allowed people to practice what they learned after the fact was "free flow" more or less so if someone was having trouble in one area of it others could just freely flow to alternate areas.
There was at least 1 person who was dropping (or going very, very slow) frequently in the class I was in (and a few others dropping occasionally) and I don't really remember it causing any issues. One of the very first things they taught the group was how to pickup their bikes easily using the "sit on your seat and creep it up" method so anyone who did drop their bike was usually back up and going again inside 30 seconds anyways.
Did any dump it on the other side while righting it? That is always the funniest/saddest part.
They did also teach how to avoid doing that - easier if if dumped to the right as the kickstand helps, but yeah, harder if you dumped left and it’s not there to aid you in case you go too far.
I didn’t see if it actually happened regardless as I was pretty much constantly moving the entire day - saw bikes down but nobody made an audience out of the misfortune of others so people didn’t stop and watch. There was no judgment. I came close to dumping a few times myself. I did a few weeks later when out practicing further myself.
