Solutions built by you!


In 2019, we embarked on a collaborative journey with local transit authorities to modernize driver training for the 21st century. Together, we crafted a comprehensive driver training curriculum covering bus knowledge, driving techniques, and real-life scenarios. By prioritizing feedback from transit training staff, we tailored our solutions to meet needs like "simulator compactness", "easy hardware upgradability", and "hassle-free software updates", all aimed at attracting new drivers, increasing pass rates, enhancing road safety, and improving driving skills for all demographics, languages, and proficiency levels.

​

We leverage a range of devices, from phones and computers to driving simulators and virtual reality, ensuring accessible, flexible learning anytime, anywhere, on any device. This approach makes learning enjoyable, engaging, and effective.

 

Following the rollout of our initial training program, Pierce Transit achieved a groundbreaking 100% Pre-Trip pass rate. Since then, we've continued to refine our software and hardware based on valuable input from our clients and their trainees, ensuring ongoing improvement and innovation for current and future members of our driving community.

​

DoT offer the most complete multi-device driver training curriculum, for all experience levels and compatibility with all devices

Take Home Training

Learning never stops. Our multi-device training apps give your trainees the ability to learn and test from home or anywhere.

​

Learn every button and switch in the driver cab, understand the mechanics of the engine, and test your knowledge - all from the convenience of your phone, tablet, computer, or VR headset.

Pre-Trip CDL

Our Mobile and Virtual Reality Pre-Trip Inspection Training offers a dynamic, hands-on approach to learning. With our course, trainees can simulate and learn the pre-trip inspection objectives as required for their State exam success

The KNOWLEDGE

Mastering vehicle operation begins with understanding its components and we bring the virtual driver cab to you.

 

KNOWLEDGE training covers fundamental aspects, such as the functions of individual controls (e.g., this button activates that feature). Subsequent learning delves into more intricate systems and procedures, providing insight into broader concepts (e.g., interactions with the air compressor) essential for a comprehensive understanding.
