YRC

REDTI has its own, modern building in the Inkster Industrial Park area of Winnipeg. Our classrooms and instructional labs are furnished with the most-recent teaching aids and 'hands-on' demonstration equipment. Recent model tractors and a full variety of trailers provide for all aspects of in-cab training under controlled conditions on our adjacent driving ranges that extend over three acres.

Our teaching program consists of instruction over a 13-week period with courses beginning at various times throughout the year. Class size is about 24 students to ensure that each benefits fully from individual attention and instruction.

Our classes are based on standards common to the United States and Canada, which means our graduates are capable of international operations.

The teaching program consists of four basic components: Classroom, Laboratory, Range and Street.

In the classroom, students are instructed and tested on the full scope of subjects related to professional driving, which range from operating safety and hazard perception to communications, regulations and travel and shipment management.

Our lab courses provide students a "hands-on" understanding of truck equipment and components and detailed instructions in maintenance procedures and requirements.

The range is a controlled driving area that is used to simulate the conditions and needs for a variety of maneuvers. Here, students receive their vehicle orientation training, are instructed in operations handling and acquire behind-the-wheel experience and practice.

The street part of our course extends proficiency development to truck routes in cities and to nearby secondary highways.

The goal of our teaching is to graduate entry level tractor/trailer drivers to the transportation industry by providing our students the professional competence that employers most require: performance capability, thorough knowledge, effective skills and a positive, productive attitude.
