Negative experience: Don’t come to this academy they don’t give enough driving time to students plus staff is rude they are nice until they get money from your pocket day you paid they won’t even recognize you. They r so selfish fake promises. 90% your time they will waste in classrooms. They will put somebody else in your truck to practice in your time who are failed students cuz their students always fail. before my batch whole class failed cdl except one. If you passed any chance they won’t hire you cuz they know they don’t trust their students. Save your money stay away from this company otherwise you will end up your life in road.

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at Arnold Bros. Transportation Academy. Fred, our theory instructor, is an experienced truck driver with over 25 years of experience. He explains everything clearly and uses detailed tools like an AirBoard and an RC truck model to make the learning material easy to understand. My driving instructor, Bill, has over 30 years of experience and taught me in a simple and logical way, which helped me pass the Phase 1 and Phase 2 MPI exams with no errors, despite having no prior experience. The school is very supportive and accommodating, ensuring I was well-prepared for my exams. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your great words, Leonid! We enjoyed having you as a student.
Fantastic experience: Very experienced and knowledgeable instructors both in class and in yard/cab. Mr. Gurpinder Mann is a very patient, professional and knowledgeable instructor. He was very supportive throughout the course, has a very positive attitude that keeps you motivated to learn more and give the best. Koodos to the entire ABT team !!!
Fantastic experience: I chose Arnold Brothers to take my class 1 training due to the convenience of living close by and because of there positive reputation. I was very satisfied with my experience. First 2 weeks in classroom was great , the instructor Fred is an awesome teacher, was a fun environment to be in which helped the 2 weeks of in class go by fast. The next 2 weeks in the truck we learned, pre trip, air brake and coupling, shifting/floating and got into some driving in preparation for the phase 1 (Coupling, air brake & pre trip) testing at Mpi, after passing phase 1 we moved onto the next 2 weeks focusing on driving, backing, turning , specialty turns, in preparation for phase 2 (road test). I was successful on both phases, on my first attempts , which I give all credit to my instructor Pritpal, who i was very fortunate to have been placed with, he is an amazing instructor, his teaching style was perfect for my learning style. After 6 weeks of training , i completed my MELT and Passed both MPI test and have successfully obtained my class 1 licence I highly Recommend Arnold Brothers to anyone who is looking to get there class 1.
Danny, we very much appreciate your kind words and look forward to hearing of your progress in your new career. Thanks again and drive safe!
Fantastic experience: Amazing school, from Angela at the front desk, to Bill my instructor. I took my class 3 with these folks, and I don't have a single bad word to say about my training. Bill has decades of experience, and it shows. I will be recommending Arnold Brothers to anyone who asks, they've earned my respect. *Edit* Just passed my road test today, 1st try, 100%. Really speaks to the quality of the school.
Thank you so much for your kind review, Jesse.
