Picking a Truck Driver School

Welcome to the forum ..... and good luck. Where in Canada are you planning on going to commercial driving school ? Or does it matter ?

 

Re Area: I know instructors at Commercial Safety College in Nova Scotia. Good old school with a good reputation. Local accommodations and on-the-job training programs with potential jobs for the the top % of graduates. http://safetycollege.ca/

Also try Atlantic Transport Training Academy in New Brunswick http://www.atlantictransport.com I do note that clicking on this link sends me to Transport Training Centers Of Canada's main web site. I knew the owner of Atlantic Transport Academy. Teddy Sparks. I also know his older brother, Kenny. Good guys. Tons of experience. Kenny has a truck on with RST Industries hauling chem tank. Maybe Teddy sold out to TTCC. He has/had a GREAT school with great instructors. They also have/had an on-the-job (ojt) program and access to local, affordable, accommodations.

There are tons of commercial driving schools nation wide these days.If location isn't an issue, go to Alberta. Room and board will be expensive. Training will be standard. OJT programs will be available. You'll probably be recruited as an apprentice if you graduate in the top % of the class.

Google 'truck driving schools', then Google the best results for reviews.

G'Luck

 

All dependant on what part of the country you come to but if you end up central. Trans industrial safety training in saskatoon, sk is amazing. I did my training there and I've never met a calmer bunch, I couldn't do what they do and stay that calm.

Roger is the owner and a friend of mine and I know he helps sgi (saskatchewan government insurance) literally write the books for training, local laws etc plus he writes articles in the daily trucker magazine.

Hope this helps.
