BISMARCK, N.D. (Nov. 21, 2025) – The North Dakota Insurance Reserve Fund (NDIRF) was awarded the 2024 Driver Safety Training Award by the North Dakota Safety Council (NDSC), a chapter of the National Safety Council (NSC).
“Awards are given to businesses and instructors that excel in driver safety best practices by offering NSC training courses,” said Terry Weaver, NDSC traffic safety program manager.
NDIRF received the Driver Safety Training Award for 788 of its member-employees successful completion of NSC defensive driving courses in 2024. As of November 2025, the number of successfully completed courses is up to 935 and counting.
The NDIRF offers educational opportunities to its members as a part of the mission to be the source of risk services for North Dakota political subdivisions. Many of these courses are free to NDIRF members, including the NSC defensive driving course.
“Defensive driving courses are a great risk management tool for any entity,” added Corey Olson, NDIRF Director of Member Services. “They assist with making roads safe for our employees, citizens, and students by keeping defense driving tactics in the forefront of North Dakota drivers’ minds.”
