The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) introduced mandatory entry-level training for new commercial Class A truck drivers. A Class A license is required to drive a commercial motor vehicle towing a trailer exceeding 4,600 kg (10,141 lbs).
The mandatory training will impact any new applicant for a Class A driver’s license on or after July 1, 2017. These individuals will be required to successfully complete a mandatory entry-level training course before attempting the road test. Those already holding a Class A license will not be required to complete the training.
The following outlines how the entry-level driver training program will work:
The training will be provided by Private Career Colleges, Ontario Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology, and recognized authorities under the Ministry of Transportation’s Driver Certification Program.
The training providers will have one year to develop curriculum based on provincial training standards. According to MTO, the new standards will be released early July, 2016.
The approved training providers will set the course fees and it will take students approximately four to six weeks to complete the course.
Once an individual completes the course, it will be recorded on a provincial web-based system by the approved training provider and then it will be verified by Drive Test Centers before an applicant can attempt a Class A road test.
