The world of truck driving offers a range of incredible opportunities, offering you the chance to see the world, meet new people, and take on compelling challenges. However, to truly excel in this field, a driver needs both skill and knowledge. Luckily, the Professional Transport Driver Training School's philosophy is based on precisely this: providing every driver with the skills necessary to thrive.


1. Comprehensive Training Programs


Our range of training programs blends theory and practical learning, offering a robust foundation for any truck driving career. We offer a variety of classes such as:


- Class 1 Programs: This program provides comprehensive training in all necessary practical and theoretical skills for Class 1 license aspirants. The 244-hour program includes up to 100% funding available through MB Education ETT or other sources. The program encompasses two weeks of classroom training and four weeks of yard and in-cab training. Not to forget, the Mandatory Entry-Level Training (MELT) course required since September 2019, is part of the curriculum.

- Remedial Training: This program is designed to help you advance your driving skills and knowledge in various industry-specific areas and safety practices.
