    I everybody, I am a new user of this forum. I am 29 years old and I live at Quebec.

    I would like to move in Alberta this years maybe in the spring or in the summer. I get my class 1 here (Quebec) and after I move for Alberta. I have somes questions after I am reading many posts on this forum.

    1- What is the best place (driving school) for get all of my tickets (H2S Alive, -GODI, -TDG, -PST, -CSTS, -1st aid level 1 with CPR) Others tickets?

    2- Tickets online are a good option before to move?

    3- Do you know of companies that provides opportunities for beginner to Edmonton or (Kisku, Beaumont, Leduc, Fort Saskatchewan, St. Albert). I'll have my class 1 without experience arriving in Alberta, but long term I'd probably have a job on a class 3 (oil, milk, waste and others).

    Certainly, I want to improve my English and want to live long time in Alberta.

    Be patient with my English please :)

    A decent company would put you through all your courses you need. I don't know of any online courses for the ones you have listed.

    If you already have your class 1, a big company like Sanjel, cal frac, trican, etc will take a good look at hiring you right now. And they will provide you with some relocation costs and all of your courses.

    Hope that helps you.
