Chibuzor Bendeh ★★★★★ I am thrilled to announce that I passed my AZ test yesterday, 12/11/2024, at the Kitchener CDL Drive Centre. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the staff and management of Commercial Heavy Equipment Training Ltd. (CHET) for their exceptional support throughout my training. I wholeheartedly give CHET a 5-STAR RATING and strongly recommend them to anyone looking to pursue a career in trucking.If you're considering CHET, here are four reasons why they stand out:1. Ministry Standards: CHET strictly adheres to M.T.O. standards, emphasizing safety over shortcuts. They train you not just to pass the test, but to excel as a professional truck driver.2. Diversity: CHET is a standout for its diversity in terms of nationality and culture, unlike any other school I've attended in Ontario. They treat everyone with utmost respect.3. Resources: The facilities at CHET impressed me greatly, from the well-equipped classrooms to the state-of-the-art simulators. Their spacious training yard allows for practical, one-on-one training with instructors. The fleet of trucks available ensures ample hands-on experience. Instructors like Nasir and Ibrahim—who assisted with my 90-degree backing—and Dwight and Rouhullah—who helped with my shifting—are highly qualified and incredibly patient. I also had the opportunity to learn from other qualified instructors, enhancing my training experience.4. Open Door Policy: The accessibility of management through CHET’s open door policy greatly enhanced my learning experience. Managers like Sandra Graham, the operations manager, and Francois Jeddi, the fleet expert and sales manager, whom I consider a trucking guru, were always available to listen, guide, and provide practical solutions and motivation.Additionally, the recruitment and job placement support at CHET is commendable. I met several alumni now employed with Musket Transport Ltd, CHET’s parent company, and others who secured trucking jobs elsewhere.My experience at CHET has been profoundly impactful, and I am deeply thankful to everyone at Commercial Heavy Equipment Training Ltd. for helping me realize my dream.Response from the ownerCongratulations! We are thrilled to hear about your positive training experience and ability to join Musket’s fleet. Enjoy your new career!

We greatly appreciate it. Jay H ★★★★★ Just finished my first week and I have to say Chet has greatly exceeded beyond my expectations. I went to about 7 other trucking schools across the GTA and attended a career fair at TBDC when I found out about Chet. At the time I saw François, (instructor) surrounded by a bunch of people asking questions about the trucking industry. I eventually decided it wouldn’t be best to speak directly and went strait to the school the following week. So far everyone I have met at Chet feels like family and the instructors really take the time to teach answer any questions you have. One of my instructors Nasir really broke down every detail of the trucking industry. In a class of about 10 to 12 people in the theory portion of the course from 8 am to 5 pm I can’t say there was one time where he didn’t have an answer or was stumped. He knew absolutely everything and that’s what you get when you have experience in the field. Though short my experience here so far has been greater than any college I went to in the past and In the next coming weeks I should be a fully licensed AZ truck driver. Check this school out you won’t regret it.Response from the ownerThank you for your detailed review, Jay! We appreciate the time it took for you to share your experience. cornell mclean ★★★★★ I had an amazing experience at the Commercial Heavy Equipment Training Ltd. (CHET)! From day one, the instructors were incredibly supportive and encouraging. Ensuring I felt comfortable and confident throughout each step. They genuinely want you to succeed and go the extra mile to provide personalized guidance and hands-on training. If you’re looking for a truck driving school where the entire team is dedicated in helping you reach your goals, I highly recommend Commercial Heavy Equipment Training Ltd. (CHET)Response from the ownerThank you for your recommendation and detailed review! Godwin Agbebaku ★★★★★ As a Marine Engineer by profession, I am impressed with their level of confidence in teaching, commitment to time, adherence to safety rules, and value delivery.Response from the ownerThank you for sharing your experience! Harmanpreet ★★★★★ I am very thankful that while getting training for my AZ licence I was in good hands. I cleared my AZ test in first attempt. As a women its very big achievement as I think. It happen just because of all the instructors those help me to pass it. It was an amazing experience. The whole staff is very respectful. I must say if anyone wanna crack AZ in first attempt or wanna learn new skills please must visit Chet musket atleast once.

Jennifer Winters ★★★★★ After moving to Canada alone 3 months ago - coming to CHET was the best decision I have made. The instructors, management, receptionists and everyone there have become like family to me. My trainer Jorge is an absolute gentleman, going above and beyond to really help you to grasp the knowledge and understanding of how to be a skilled and safe driver, even making me a simulator (in his own time) to help me practice shifting in manual transmission. This paid off as I passed my road test first time, and was supported by Sandra every step of the way that day at the Ministry, she helped me push through the nerves and do the best job that I could on my test.Huge shout out to all of the other expert instructors, Francois, Nasir, Andrew, Rob, Rahoulla, Miro, Ibrahim, Nick, Uri & Dwight (hope I didn't miss anyone) for sharing their knowledge and expertise to help prepare us for the real world. Special thanks to Marta and Kareen, who greet you every day with a friendly face and a smile and are always there to help.I'm so happy to have passed (and am proud to say, now employed 3 weeks later in an AZ long haul position) but I am going to really miss my trucking family, but I know that I will always be welcomed back with open arms.
