EMS Driver Training

A-1 Driving School Ltd. offers a wide range of driver training programs specifically designed for EMS personnel. Driving an ambulance requires above-average driving abilities. Paramedics have to be effective at controlling their driving environment in all situations and conditions without compromising the safety of their patients, their partner, or other road users.

International Drivers

A-1 Driving School offers you the opportunity to learn and develop the right driving habits from the professionals. These are habits that could one day save your life and those you love. Winter driving is a fact of life for Canadians, but winter driving can sometimes be a daunting task, especially when conditions are snowy or icy.

Senior Drivers

Even if you haven’t been involved in a collision; it may be time to review your driving skills. We offer in-vehicle refresher lessons to prepare you for an upcoming road test, in-vehicle assessments (Driver Competency Assessment DCA2) to address concerns, and in-class courses so you can make safe and informed decisions on the road.
