    Hello:

    If I obtain a class one licence in one province (e.g., BC) and I then decide I want to work in another (e.g., Alberta), is it possible to obtain another class one licence without doing another road test?

    I am new to this, so it's just something I would like to know as I think about where I might pursue training

    Thanks.

    [h=3]Exchanging a Canadian Licence[/h]A valid licence from another Canadian jurisdiction can be exchanged for an equivalent class (Classes 1 through 7) of operator’s licence. Testing is not normally required. A vision screening is required for all classes. A medical is required for Classes 1, 2 and 4 and may also be required for all other classes if the applicant has a medical condition that may affect their ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Applicants must produce acceptable identification and proof of residency.

    From AB to SK I only needed to do another medical in order to switch it over. From SK to NB I wasnt required to do anything extra to switch over. no road tests.
