Pass my class 1 on my first attempt. Staff is very professional. I worked full time and so finding the time to get training in yard and I can with somewhat difficult. But they worked with my schedule,.they were patient with me which helped tremendously in the end. Maple Truck Training is definitely the go to training school.

Craig (Max)Class 1

All of the instructors were highly experienced. The office and classroom was clean and organized and the staff were all very helpful. Newer trucks that were all in excellent condition. Even on the coldest days everything would be warmed up and ready to go for training before students would arrive.

Tyson M

Today I got my Class 1 license at first try. I m very happy . Instructors (AMAN and JASPAL) are very knowledgeable and understandable. They gave me full knowledge about the truck.. OFFICE STAFF girls over there are also very flexible with your schedule. I highly recommend Maple Truck Training school for your Class 1 license.
