AVAILABLE SPACES IN OUR AIR BRAKES COURSES

If you are planning to operate vehicles with air brakes in Alberta, the Government of Alberta requires you to have the “Q” endorsement on your Alberta Drivers License. Whether you want to drive a motorhome, bus, fire truck, or grain truck, we have spaces available in both our October and November Air Brakes courses. 

Professional training is crucial for aspiring commercial drivers, providing essential skills and knowledge for safe and confident driving. Register today for the Air Brakes Course. 

Who Must Complete the Approved Air Brake Course?

Air brakes generate air pressure through a compressor, distributing it to the vehicle's brakes via hoses, reservoirs, and control valves. To legally operate air brake-equipped vehicles in Alberta, drivers in classes 1 through 5 must complete an approved air brake course to obtain the Q endorsement on their license.

In Alberta, drivers operating single-motor farm vehicles are exempt from air brake endorsements. However, those driving farm vehicle combinations requiring a Class 1 licence must obtain the endorsement. 

Completing an approved air brake course and passing the written test at a registry office earns drivers the Q endorsement.

Our comprehensive air brake course covers theoretical knowledge and practical skills, including classroom sessions, practical training, and tests. Upon completion, drivers can obtain the Q endorsement by passing the knowledge test at a registry office.
