North American Transport Driving Academy

I would recommend North American Transport Driving Academy to anyone who is looking to get their truck driving license, especially women! They are all great, I looked at other companies and none of them very as friendly and knowledgeable. The Instructors were friendly and patient. They take the time to insure you are comfortable with your level of driving before moving forward. I want to give a great big thank you to my instructors Joe and Chuck, I can’t forget Donna, Thanks so much to all.

Great school and Instructors, passed today and working tomorrow. They found me a job. So happy. Everyone at North American Transport Driving Academy are fantastic, I would recommend this school of you want the best training. Special thanks to Joe he is amazing. Thanks to Donna, Marc and Chuck the support I had was awesome. Thank you so very much

I needed to get my DZ license done pronto for an upcoming interview for emergency service and the amazing staff at NA Driving Academy made it happen! Danielle was AMAZING to deal with, really, she spent an entire day communicating with the other NATDA office managers in the region so that they could accommodate my short timeline, finally finding some space in Smith Falls and Kingston. If my first impression of NATDA wasn't great already, I then met my instructor Rob "Buck" Stevens. Buck is an awesome guy, and now someone I consider a friend; filled with trucker stories that could lure anyone to the open road. A great teacher, Buck has tons of patience for those willing to learn, and he is genuinely invested in the success of those looking to join the "brotherhood" as Buck would say. He met me on his own time on a Sunday for a couple of hours just so I could have a bit of a refresher in preparation for my MTO driving test. Needless to say, when the day of the test arrived, I was more than prepared, not to mention confident. Buck teaches you for the real world, and doesn't just "teach to pass the test". By the time I got to my driving test it was an absolute cakewalk. Buck was my first call after passing my road test in Kingston, and his excitement for me just shined through the phone, he was genuinely proud and happy for my success. I was then also contacted by Danielle after hearing the good news, asking why she wasn't my first phone call, haha she was so happy for me! Honestly, the whole staff at NATDA Smith Falls are really wonderful people, all so invested in your success in pursuing a career or interest in commercial trucking. I'll most likely drop in just to say hi whenever I end up in Smith Falls. Thank you Thank you Thank you! You guys are the best! Also got to give a shout out to Dave from Kingston who helped with my Z endorsement, and who was supervising on my road test day. And props to Jodi the office manager in Kingston who worked with Danielle to schedule everything. So happy to have met you all!

Wonderful school, very well organized and professional. Danielle and Buck are the best! They go above and beyond to set their students up for a successful future in trucking. If you are looking for a trucking school this is the place to go - hands down!

Such an amazing training experience provided here. Rob (Buck) has an incredible skill for training, extremely helpful on honing in my skills as a driver and teaching the rules of the road in a manner that is easy to digest and retain. Wouldn’t have learned as much as I did with a different trainer in the same amount of time. Danielle in the office is also an amazing admin, she was able to juggle my own schedule within the training schedule and made for a super seamless experience from start to finish. Can’t thank these two enough, thanks to them I am a fully licensed and exceptionally trained AZ driver. If anyone wants to upgrade their license, NATDA Smith Falls is the place to go.

The staff are very helpful and friendly. The instructors are highly qualified with years of driving experience all over North America as well as being dedicated educators. The office staff I’ve been in contact with in 2021 have been highly educated, possessed a great deal of real life experience and copious amounts of perspicuity and perspicacity. It is such a relief to receive lessons from such wonderful people. Don’t let the rural location fool you, I’ve lived in Toronto and Tokyo for the past 30 years and you will be just as challenged here on the roads as you will be anywhere. More importantly they will prepare you to be able to drive anywhere.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The attention from staff and quality of instruction at this school is second to none. Buck and Rebbecca made getting my license a comfortable process and taught me so much about the truck driving world and not just how to pass a drivetest. When anyone asks where to get their training, I'll be sure to send them here.

I really enjoyed everyday I went to this school. I am now a certified AZ driver because of the personal interest Rob Stevens took in me as a student. Your success is his success and he makes sure you know it. Robs experience on the road enabled him to answer every possible question I could think of. The support i received enabled me to pass the road test first try and feeling confident going into it. Anyone looking for proper training on how to operate a transport and really learn a pretrip should attend the Smiths Falls campus. It really was a great experience for me that I will always remember fondly. Thank you all so much!!
