We think our driver trainer Stan said it best when he told the Drive Test Examiner (polietly) the following: "we no train for your test, we train for life!"
That statement embodies who we are and our mission.
We dont spend two weeks or more in a class room! Our students come to us so that we can teach them how to operate the equipment so as to keep themselves and the motoring public safe and that is what we do.
Depending on the course you have chosen you are going to spend some time in the class room and its important that you do but once your in class in done (maximum one week), its all truck time after that.
Afterall your not paying us to teach you to drive a desk!

North American Transport Driving Academy: Des avis
Expérience fantastique: Si quelqu'un cherche vraiment une école pour lui apprendre non seulement à conduire mais aussi à faire fonctionner un camion, il n'y a pas de meilleur endroit. Ben et son équipe s'occupent de leurs camions et de leur matériel pour s'assurer que vous avez toujours quelque chose de fiable sur lequel vous entraîner. Stan est le meilleur instructeur que j'ai eu de loin et il se soucie réellement de vous et de la façon dont vous apprenez tous les différents matériels, surtout en ce qui concerne la conduite et les règles et réglementations de la route. J'ai été dans d'autres écoles de conduite de transport et je les ai quittées pour venir ici, et je vous le dis sans aucun doute : ne vous entraînez nulle part ailleurs, vous ne pouvez pas vous tromper avec Ben, Stan et l'équipe ici à North American. Le meilleur choix que j'ai fait. Merci encore les gars!
Expérience fantastique: J'ai eu une excellente expérience avec l'académie. Les instructeurs s'assurent que vous avez toutes les connaissances qui feront de vous un conducteur professionnel réussi. Je tiens à remercier Ben, Jodie, Debra, Mike et Stan pour ce grand pas dans le voyage de ma vie.
Bob, c'était plus toi que nous, c'est sûr. C'est toi qui as investi le temps et les efforts pour étudier et pratiquer, et pour cet effort, toute entreprise à la recherche d'un chauffeur professionnel crédible, fiable et sûr ne se tromperait pas en te confiant le volant et en t'ayant sur leur liste de paie ! Je tiens à te féliciter pour ton accomplissement et c'est exactement cela ! Je sais que le personnel ici ne t'a pas seulement appris à réussir un test, mais t'a enseigné ce que tu dois savoir pour rendre nos routes dans cette province plus sûres ! S'il te plaît, ne sois jamais un étranger et encore une fois, nos félicitations à toi ! Ben et l'équipe à Kingston
Expérience fantastique: J'ai réussi mon test AR du premier coup et j'ai obtenu mon attestation Z grâce à ces gars-là ! Leur administratrice Jodie est une perle. Elle connaît l'industrie sur le bout des doigts et vous accompagne à chaque étape du processus. Leurs instructeurs - Stan et Arden - étaient fantastiques, compétents et aiment clairement ce qu'ils font. Il est excitant d'entendre les projets que cette équipe a pour l'entreprise, alors gardez un œil sur cette école de formation. J'ai une confiance absolue dans l'avenir de cette école. Quiconque n'a pas sauté sur cette opportunité par souci peut se reposer sachant qu'il est entre de bonnes mains. Toute l'équipe est au-dessus du reste ! 10/10 de ma part.
Jodie est le pilier de l'entreprise, il n'y a aucun doute là-dessus. Elle peut conduire un camion, un chariot élévateur, livrer des courses du dos d'un camion et elle s'assure que l'école fonctionne comme elle le devrait. Stan est un ancien élève d'il y a 16 ans, quand il venait d'Ukraine ! Il ne nous a jamais quittés. Il a conduit un camion pour nous à travers le Canada et les États-Unis et a pris en charge chaque tâche que nous lui avons confiée. Arden est un nouvel ajout bienvenu ! C'est du sérieux car non seulement il sait les conduire mais il peut aussi les réparer. Voici un gars qui n'a pas peur de se sal dirty et cette expérience bénéficie à chaque élève ! Tout comme Stan, nous envoyons Arden à l'école pour continuer sa transition de conducteur à instructeur ! Tyler, entre Jodie, Stan et Arden, tu as reçu ton éducation de personnes qui n'auraient jamais compromis la qualité de l'éducation que tu as reçue. Nous sommes une école professionnelle, pas une école « pour vous apprendre à réussir le test » et maintenant tu as les compétences et les connaissances qui te permettront un bon départ ! Félicitations à toi et ne sois jamais un étranger ! Ben
Expérience fantastique: Je suis un récent diplômé de cette école, et je dois dire que la directrice Jodie était absolument phénoménale dans toute l'organisation, et a apporté un excellent soutien pendant mon cours. Stan, l'instructeur senior, était très compétent et un excellent enseignant. Arden, le second instructeur, était également excellent dans ses capacités d'entraînement et ses expériences de conduite. Je recommande fortement cette école à quiconque souhaitant obtenir son permis de camion commercial.
Expérience fantastique: Good School and instructors are helpful. I enjoyed with him all the time.
Expérience fantastique: They’ve individual training schedules, no one other than your trainer while traing. They not only teach to drive trucks but they teach all aspects about this career. And most Importantly they get jobs right away you get your license. I got my license by training from them on 3 January,2023 and I was driving truck for big company by 10 January,2023. Excellent service.
Expérience fantastique: Got my license today and this school truly cares for its students Ben, Jodie and my instructor Stan were all amazing and can’t thank them enough for everything, I recommend if you want the best schooling go to North American!
Expérience fantastique: BEST IN THE EAST. NA instructors were knowledgable, friendly and genuinely want you to succeed. Admin always has your back and explains everything. great price, top-quality training, dont get trained anywhere else. - Kyle S (Kingston)
Expérience fantastique: Jodi - Stan - Ted There’s nothing I can say that the other reviews haven’t already said. You couldn’t ask for more Precise, caring, and motivating individuals! Each piece of that puzzle fits together perfectly. You have Stan that can answer any question you ask him!(With sound effects! Lol) - you have Ted that doesn’t skip a beat when it comes to fundamentals! And you have Jodi who basically does it all.. literally. If you have a passion for trucking and an opportunity to learn from the Kingston academy - do it! Absolutely do it!
Expérience fantastique: If you're thinking of starting a career in the commercial trucking industry then this school should be your first stop!! Jodie runs a smooth and seamless program while instructors Ted and Stan's attention to details, through all aspects of the program, ensured I passed my drive test on the first attempt! I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and I definitely recommend this driving academy to those who are looking to succeed in trucking!!
Rolf, your certainly not wrong! Jodie, Stan and Ted are all top notch people and they will never train you to just pass your test! They know what it takes to be successful in our industry as a driver and through the MELT program I know they would have relayed the proper understanding and techniques which will keep you and the other road users safe! Jodie, Stan and Ten all appreciate the recognition you have provided through your review. That means allot to them so thank you for recognizing their efforts. We wish you all the best moving forward and do not loose our numbers! You have any questions while you are out there, someone tells you to "deferr hours and run past your 13, 14 or 16, just pick up the phone. We wont steer you wrong (no pun intended). Thank you again Ben Santucci, B.E.S. President North American Transport Driving Academy
Expérience fantastique: Nothing but great things to say about the gang at North American Transport Driving Academy in Kingston, between Ted, Stan and Jodie they made the experience very enjoyable. They go above and beyond and do whatever they can to help you succeed and teach you everything you need for your future! Thank you again for everything you guys did to set me up for my new career!
Good Evening Kris! I have to agree, the three of them are top shelf, there is no question. They are passionate, dedicated and disciplined and strive to ensure that the students are educated to the highest levels. We need to do everything we can to avoid another Humboldt. One of the keys to avoiding future tragedy is to ensure that commercial drivers receive the best education possible. That is what Jodie, Ted and Stan want for you and every student that we teach. Kris if, in the future, the direction from dispatch or the operator are different from what we have taught you, please be sure to pick up the phone and call us. Never be a stranger, we are always here to answer any questions you might have moving forward. Your education with us does not end at the end of the course! I will pass along the message to the team in Kingston. They will be honoured that you thought of them. Best of luck in your new career and never be a stranger! Thank you Ben
Expérience fantastique: Kingston Location - Great staff goes above and beyond to help you learn at your pace. They will do everything possible to help you succeed. It’s well worth the money. There’s a lot of shady training centres, this not one of them.
Expérience fantastique: Between Stan, Ted, and Jodie, they did way beyond the minimum to help me achieve my DZ license in record time. Ted teaches theory with hands on learning materials and lessons that actually make sense. I went into this course with the absolute bare minimum knowledge in automotive parts and how they work together, and left with a truly complete knowledge of engines due to Ted’s teachings, and I am very grateful. Stan was beyond helpful with the Z course and practical driving. He took time to answer all the questions I had (there were a lot of them) and even staying beyond the lesson time to help me with things I didn’t learn right away. When it came to the driving, Stan was patient with me learning the proper inspection procedures and would go through them multiple times with me until I was 100% confident. The pre trip inspections were thorough and explained in a way that actually made sense . Jodie was instrumental in helping me get my new DZ. She not only helped me to find a doctor to do my medical but throughout the program was patient and answered all of my questions through the process. I cannot thank this company enough for all they have done to allow me to journey into this new career with a strong foundation of knowledge that will help me truly excel. Thank you again Ted, Stan, and Jodie. I wish nothing but the best for all of you !
Expérience fantastique: I normally don't leave reviews of businesses, but feel that I should give credit when it's due. If you are interested in gaining thorough knowledge, as well as your license in truck driving, this place is where you should go. The instructors were very engaging and extremely knowledgeable. The secretary Jodi was an absolute pleasure to deal with and kept me on track and organized the entire way through. Since finishing the program, I have gained full time employment at the organizations that I had originally intended on getting work with. Cheers!
Derek, I dont leave allot of reviews either and normally not a negative one. I preferr, like you, to give credit where credit is due. Your right though, I have the privledge of working with an incredible team of people including Jodie, Stan and Ted and these people need to be recognized and their craftsmanship celebrated! The key now is to never deviate from your teachings. Your checklist one, two and three along with your good common sense will be instramental in keeping you and the other road users safe. Good luck Derek and please never be a stranger. Call us if you ever have any questions. Thanks Ben on behalf of all of us at North American
Expérience fantastique: Great place with really professional staff that will do their best to get your license. Highly recommended if you want that license. Jodie is my favourite.
Your right Fadi, Jodie never gets the credit she deserves for all the work she does! Behind the scene she works tirelessly to ensure the School runs efficiently and that the Instructors and Students are organized and the equipment is where it needs to be. So its no wonder she is your favourite and you, like all of us here, have a keen eye for talent, smarts and dedication! Well done on your achievement Fadi! 1 Drive Test attempt and 1 Pass! Does not get any better than that and you now have a solid foundation to continue to build skill and knowledge moving forward! Hats off to you and Jodie! Ben
Expérience fantastique: Excellent!!!
Stan you did amazing in your course and over your 10 year career you have traveled pretty much across Canada, through the montains and through out the eastern seaboard of the US! Your experience and your dedication to excellence has paid off with every single student benefiting from your attitude ... "we no train for your test - we train for life". No truer words have been spoken! Gold medal performace every single day Stan! Ben
Expérience fantastique: In simple words, "No pain no gain". If you have hunger of learning and dedication you should consider North American transport driving academy. you will learn driving and ethics both here.
Amrit, as with every student success, like yours, its the students drive and work ethic that dictates the level of success. Every opportunity where we could provide some extra time to practice, you took it. You seized those opportunities and turned it into a professional that we can all feel safe being beside on the road! Well done Amrit! It was a pleasure to watch you work hard, it was even more of a pleasure to see you smile every once and while! Every one of us wishes you success in your future endeavours and the work ethic you showed us here at North American will serve you well in the future! Ben
Expérience fantastique: This is really good school to go for learning . All staff members are helpful as recently I got my license from here. My experience was great and I got a lot of things to learn from here. Special thanks to Ben and all the teachers.
Mohit, you had an amazing road test! Perfect! Zero wrong on all aspects and only 4 pull ups for backing! Seriously! Now you know how you managed that Mohit? Because you worked and worked and worked at it here in the yard. On your own time you would pick out a truck and practice, practice, practice and even the Drive Test Examiner said he has never seen anyone complete a pretrip with the precision and knowledge that you demonstrated today. With a test like that I would have you driving one of my trucks with no issues. And yes you are right Jodie, Dave, John and Stan are top notch. They know their stuff, they don't teach you just to pass that test, they give you a great foundation for a successful future in transportation. Terrific folks to work with! Mohit don't ever be afraid to use us as a reference! Ben
Expérience fantastique: Great staff with over the top training going above and beyond for the students. Received my ARZ drivers licence at North American Transport Driving Academy and could not be happier with my experience. Would recommend anyone looking to start a driving career to start with this company! Thank you to Ben, John, and Dave!
Will, which ever station house you find yourself in when you enter your new career as a fire fighter, the residents where you are stationed will rest easy knowing that you are on duty. I know that simply based on how seriously you took your course. Practice, Practice and more Practice along with studying on your own time to master the skills. That dedication will serve you well in the years to come and any Fire Department that hires you should be proud of who they have serving the residents of their community. Ben
Expérience positive: So far it is enjoyable. I’ve only finished the first week so will keep adding to this as a progress.
Expérience fantastique: I went to crossroads tranning in 2015 and Thay did not do a vary good job the owner and staff at North American are great and friendly Go to this school it's the best
Thank you Dalton! Myself, Jodie, John, Stan and Dave all work really hard to keep the course upto date and to provide our students with the best education we can. Its about improving road safety. We all have family so we have to work hard to keep everyone safe on the road and that mission starts right here at School. Thanks Ben
Expérience fantastique: This academy is very professional if anyone wants to achieve A license. I also got my Class A from here. Everyone worked very hard and I always had access to truck and trailers to practice myslef in yard in my free time. I also got job there. So it is complete package to have training and career. ✌✌✌ I reccomend this institute to those who want to be successful.
Manjot, you attended class every day and were on time with your homework completed! You even came in on your own time to practice your pre trip in the yard. You did very well on all your school exams and as a result you aced your Drive Test and then went on to haul from Kingston to Milton and back and did a great job as a new driver! Good luck in Brampton! Ben
Expérience fantastique: I am currently working on getting my ACZ license with the Kingston branch. The instructors and staff are truly amazing and go far beyond the mere requirements of training you. I have had trouble passing the road test as I freeze during testing. This is not a fault of the school, support or training. In fact they have gone even more beyond to employ me and help me get the confidence to pass with on the job training. I have recommended the school to a number of people in the past few months and will continue to in the future. If anyone is looking for a great fundamental start to a great career then North American Trucking Academy is definitely where I would recommend without hesitation.
Learning takes time and people learn at different rates and in different ways. My goal is to give people who want to enter this industry every opportunity to succeed. With Eugene I challenged him to come in every morning and shadow our drivers with respect to pretrip inspections and help himself and our driving staff improve on the quality of the inspections. Eugene has taken up that challenge and has demonstrated to me his willingness to become a true professional in our field. My hat is off to him for the extra effort he is applying to his studies. This determination to do the job right the first time will serve him well in our industry. Ben
Expérience fantastique: I needed a DZ in a hurry for work. The whole staff were able to accomodate and get me to a road test in time. The instructors are excellent and dont count their time. I received above and beyond instructional service. When one instructor was away dealing with paperwork etc another would just jump in and test me. I aced the practical and it is an easy 5 star review from me. Highly recommended.
Hello Nierko. Thank you for the kind words but you earned your licence. You worked hard in school, always with a positive attitude and an open mind and the result speaks for it self. I trust you are doing well in your new career and wish you the best of luck. Ben
Expérience fantastique: Course content was up to date and instructors took great care in teacher students. Shift board had some confusing stages during the course, however I am sure it will improve with time. Instructors had great knowledge of course content and seemed to care about the students understanding of course material. I would recommend this course to others.
Thanks for the post. Shiftboard (our online scheduling tool) can take a bit of time to get used to and because its up in a cloud somewhere it can go off kilter every once in a while but its the best platform to inform our students regarding their schedule. Course has vastly improved since you were here. It is night and day and we continue to work to improve as often as we can. Thanks Ben
Expérience fantastique: very good instructors good truck easy going fair priced courses safe
Expérience fantastique: Before joining any school for my AZ License, I googled a lot and went to many schools to make a choice. I saw so many awards and bold statements in their website. I thought these are just to attract the students BUT they are genuine and true to the roots. So, I went with these guys and I made it in time and I am now a proud commercial licensed driver. I started with 4 classmates and we all got our AZ license !! I would love to recommend this school to anyone who wants to go for their AZ.
Expérience fantastique: Huge thanks to the team at North American for fitting me in so quickly and providing amazing support. I was under a tight timeline to meet a job posting requirement and the team pulled together to bump up my re-test date, provide some additional information that I didn't receive with a competitor and had me test-ready. Wish I came here first. Happy to say I passed with flying colors! Highly recommend North American for training.
Expérience fantastique: Good school, great teachers. Everyone is always willing to help with whatever you need
Expérience fantastique: Past training in the U.S. was nothing compared to the course here. There, I was shown how to drive the expected test route with three days of training in a single axle, automatic vehicle and all written answers handed to me. At North American, I learned much more about safety procedures, log sheets and had lots of time to practice in the truck ... with and without the trailer. Dave's a great instructor ... great experiences with him. Looking forward to applying what I have learned at North American in my career here in Canada.
Expérience fantastique: Great instructors with lots of knowledge, course is very well laid out. Lots of time behind the wheel. Got my license and had a job driving the next day.
Expérience fantastique: I took my course there over 16 years ago! Never looked back. I was driving the night I passed my test with the MTO. They placed me with Sysco foods and have been driving ever since. I am now an owner/operator with two trucks.. I still call and ask questions and always get a welcoming response and answer ! Always continuing education!
Expérience fantastique: Great business to deal with, professional and polite staff.
Expérience fantastique: As an instructor I am impressed with the amount of detail in this program as it covers just about everything in the transportation industry
Dave, your student Mohit passed his Drive Test today with a completely perfect score including his driving! Students in Belleville will be getting one pretty amazing instructor!
Expérience fantastique: I went to North American transport driving academy to take my ACZ license. The instructors were amazing they worked one on one. They worked around my schedule and concentrated on my weak areas where I need more attention. They were all very patient and professional in their teaching. The instructors were Dave, Andy and Robb. They all encouraged me in everything I did. I would recommend North American to anybody that wants to upgrade their license. They are even going the extra mile to find a company that I can drive for . Which is amazing . I don’t know of any other transport driving academy that is better than North American.
Expérience fantastique: I went to Crossroads which is now Ontario trucking to get my DZ and I was not happy with their program or their teachers. So I went to North American Transport Driving Academy to get my ACZ. They have best instructors for you to work with one on one. When I wasn't getting along with one of my teachers I talked to the owner Jason about what was going on. Jason made my course very enjoyable because he gave me the instructors that were the best fit for me and there names are Dave and Andy. They have a lot of patience and they are professionals and know what they are doing. North American also has only 1 week of in class. Crossroads has 2 weeks in class so they can save money instead of getting the practice you need for your on road Drive Test. I would recommend everyone that is reading this to go to this school because they will help you find a career even after you have graduated. Now I am going to Kriska for a Entry Level Mentorship and they will pay for my tuition reimbursement and after completion of my apprenticeship they will also give me $2000. North American got me on track for a great and successful career.
Expérience fantastique: For anyone looking for commercial driver training in Eastern Ontario, they need not look any further than North American Transport Academy. Jason, Ben, Serge and the entire team went above and beyond at every step of my son’s training. They built a custom program that accommodated his learning disability, succeeding where traditional education had failed. In addition to providing extensive classroom and on-road training, they instilled driver responsibility and self-confidence. When my son struggled with his drivers test because of his disability, they were incredibly non-judgemental, and persevered as if he was family. Their commitment to training safe, successful and professional drivers is clear from the outset, and now my son is one. Not only did this open employment doors for him, it sky-rocketed his self-esteem. The North American Transport Academy is a first class organization, and I give my heartfelt endorsement.
Expérience fantastique: My experience at North American Transport Driving Academy was great. They were friendly, professional and accommodating. I acquired everything needed for all testing, and, to compete in the job market.
Expérience fantastique: Excellent school to go to. I learned a lot with in the six weeks I was at the school that has boosted my career in the trucking industry. The trainers are great out going guys that encourage you every step of the way. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to start there career as a professional driver.
