The Canadian Automotive and Trucking Institute has an exciting and current program that teaches the many different occupations and new technologies that are found in the transportation industry. The Instructors have real life experiences that made the lectures and bookwork come to life. I found it easy to fit into my first job as a Logistics Software trainer and further on down the line as a Dispatcher, Safety Officer, Load Planner and finally after working my way up the ladder a Dispatch & Equipment Manager for a large dedicated automotive parts carrier. I attribute my success to the diverse training that I received at C.A.T.I., which made me a valuable candidate for the many positions that I have held in trucking. – Mark D Yardy Dispatch, Equipment, Driver Manager TV Minority
I choose CATI by mistake; when I called the campus I was looking at getting my AZ license. I chose the TOS program and am glad that I made the decision I did. To everyone who reads this with a positive attitude and determination, I believe that there are many good opportunities for graduates of CATI in various positions within the automotive and trucking industry. – Mark Stapleton
