Why employers choose Journeys

Certified people you can trust with your drivers.

Before a company sends staff for licensing, it needs to know the school is the real thing. Journeys has been MTO-approved and locally run since 2015. Owner Nicole is a certified in-vehicle instructor, classroom instructor and instructor-trainer for the Ontario Safety League, P.R.I.D.E. certified. That’s the credential a corporate buyer needs to see.

You deal with the owner, not a sales desk. Instruction is available in English and French, and every driver is trained to the same standard we’ve held for over a decade.

What is P.R.I.D.E.?

P.R.I.D.E. stands for Professional Instructor in Driver Education. It’s the Ontario Bus Consortium program that trains instructors to teach drivers of buses and large fleet vehicles, and the Ministry of Transportation recognizes it as a prerequisite for signing authority under its Driver Certification Program. Nicole is P.R.I.D.E. certified. That’s the qualification behind the bus and fleet training we offer.
