I heard that parents can fill the role of driving supervisor in Virginia, so taking a Norfolk driver training course like the one Virginia Driver Improvement Program offers is not necessary. Is that true?
You should contact the Virginia DMV or a licensed driving school like Virginia Driver Improvement Program and ask them. While parent-taught driving instruction is permitted in some states, many states do NOT allow it.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a stick-shift vehicle? Will Virginia Driver Improvement Program allow me to do my driver training with an automatic-shift car?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating any type of vehicle--stick-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Virginia Driver Improvement Program and let them know before you sign up to take their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I live in a small mountain community, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my driver training with Virginia Driver Improvement Program include learning how to drive in remote areas? Or do they just offer training for city driving?

Do I have to complete a Norfolk Virginia drivers education classroom course or online course before signing up to take one of Virginia Driver Improvement Program's driver training courses?

You may want to ask Virginia Driver Improvement Program if they offer one or both programs.
