Fantastic experience: I recently completed my MC truck training with West Australia Driving School, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Paul, my instructor, was absolutely fantastic. His calm demeanor, professionalism, and depth of knowledge made the training thorough. He tailored the lessons to my needs, ensuring I gained the confidence and skills necessary to pass the test. I highly recommend Paul and West Australia Driving School to anyone looking for top-notch truck driver training. Thank you for helping me achieve this milestone!

Fantastic experience: Josh and Allen are awesome instructors always looking to give relevant training and happy to mixup their approach to delivery. Whatever works for the individual student needs. Paul and Ashley are very flexible to accommodate. I personally had to do a few additional lessons than I expected and in my PDA I made legitimate costly mistakes. Eventually I was successful and I earned my HR licence. The team is friendly and objective. Be humble with the feedback of your lessons and testing and you too will be successful like I was. Enjoy your journey.

Fantastic experience: I contacted these guys last min at westaus driver training needing to get my self a specific license. They talked me through a number of options that were available to me never pushing in either direction. Once on site I found the equipment was all in good condition and the training and assessors were clear informative and made me feel very comfortable from start to finish. Would highly recommend these guys for their very professional approach and company. Thanks guys, hope to see you on the roads again!

Fantastic experience: Took me 2 attempts at my driving assessment to pass my HR-B tuck license, but got there in the end, nothing todo with the training aspect just got nervous the first test i did and made silly mistakes. i had Josh as my instructor and he was good to work with, always gave feedback and advise during and after each drive. Josh was each to get along with down to earth didnt beat around the bush just said it how it is. Trucks and facilities were all clean, neat and tidy. All staff were friendly and easy to get along with. Would defiantly recommend WestAus Driver Training to anyone looking at getting their truck license Thank you WestAus Driver Training.

Fantastic experience: Absolute Legends! Josh and Allen were fantastic trainers and very patient and friendly with me, a beginner. They made me feel extremely comfortable and answered any questions I had even going so far as to help me record a video for the cab drill and drew diagrams to better explain the concepts and key points. Everyone I came in contact with was very friendly and fair and they even went as far as to reschedule my appointment at the last minute when I couldn't make it due to a medical emergency. Don't be put off by other reviews of people expecting to learn everything in one or two days, it can take longer especially for the harder gearboxes. They will tell you if they think you are ready to pass the test and if you decide to take it and fail that's on you. I would recommend WestAus to anyone looking to get their license and will definitely be back in the future if I need another license. Thanks again guys!

kawal batth 1 year ago

Negative experience: Would not recommend this company as my husband booked for two days course and after 2nd half day they said that you are not ready for the assessment and you have to pay for one extra day to give assessment...as the person pay for 2 days including assessment your job is to give training and take assessment because the person pay for it but they are just looking for making money by asking you that you are not ready for the assessment and need to pay more for training.....Highly dissappointed ....

WestAus Driver Training
WestAus Driver Training

Hi Kawal, Its unfortunate you have left an unfair review regarding your husband’s training. When booking in Robin, your husband, who enquired into the 2 and 3 day courses, Robin chose the 2 day course, 10 hours training /3 hour DoT assessment, our 3 day course is 17 hours training /3 hours assessment. Robin asked if not ready on the day could he book further training that day and the day after, we informed due to other bookings that most likely won’t be possible. After booking, Robin received all our MC training material, written procedures, access to our 9 videos on our website on the 15-05, training commenced on the 01-06. Robin unfortunately did not read the procedures or watch our 9 training videos prior to coming in. 7am, our enrolment process includes an outline of the course structure, expectations including the road map of what happens if assessment deferral occurs. 7:30am, practical training, included the pre-start of the truck/trailers, conducted several reversing procedures under instruction, drove to our uncoupling/coupling location where Robin was trained on all the processes required. We then completed a more substantial drive from Wangara through to Malaga and back to our yard which arrived at 10:45am with a little time to complete 1-2 reverses. We ran out of time to complete our midtrip inspection as per the structure of the course. The 2nd session was started at 11:15am, a partial prestart of tilting the cab to cover those requirements, conducted further reversing procedures then drove to our uncoupling/coupling location, Robin was then required to demonstrate the skills required preferably with minimal assistance from the trainer, unfortunately we had to cover most of the procedure under full instruction. We had to take additional time to cover the procedure which meant we could not cover the full drive through Malaga. At our yard we completed several reverse procedures before conducting the midtrip inspection. Day 1 Completion at 2pm, Robin was debriefed on his progress and was instructed to watch all videos and to read our procedural guides prior to coming in the following day. Robin informed us he was tired and fatigued due to working till 9pm the night prior and had a bad night’s sleep. Robin was unable to be enthused regarding training and admitted he was very tired and unable to focus on the procedures. The 2nd day Robin was better rested with little/no fatigue. As per structure of the course a Statement of Attainment (SOA) assessment of the prestart, reverse, drive, uncoupling/coupling and midtrip inspection was conducted. Robin demonstrated good improvement of his skills and knowledge but required on going intervention/training of all procedures, the SOA highlighted the skills and knowledge shortfall by Robin that demonstrated he was unable to independently conduct all procedures to the required standard. Robin’s drive and reverse were of a reasonably good standard but unfortunately parts of the drive did not meet standards. On completion of the SOA at 10am a debrief was given to Robin of the outcome, what recommendations for future training and how the DoT assessment was deferred to allow for the additional training. Robin was advised that he could continue training that morning through to 1pm, however it was advised that it would be in Robin’s best interest to defer training to complete 6 further hours (3 hours training and 3 hours SOA) on the same day to assist obtaining the required skills, Robin fully agreed with us that he was not ready for the assessment and should be deferred, and that additional training is required. Robin also agreed at the time that completing the 6 hours would be more beneficial for him instead of continuing training that day. Not all clients achieve the desired outcomes within the timeframe they choose, underestimated what is required to meet the standards, or not study supplied materials/videos to assist in their own development.

Negative experience: Would not recommend this company to anyone learning to drive or upgrading classes. My overall experience was unpleasant, I had negative interactions with staff and management which made this company overall hard to deal with. I understand from other reviews that West Aus Driver Training is open to constructive criticism and believe there are areas where this company could significantly improve. I must be honest and say, with the current structure in place, whereby you are asked to complete an assessment questionnaire before you sit your test, I don’t feel anyone would be willing to provide a true assessment or reflection of their experience at the time, so I leave this review. I initially enquired about a 1 Day HR Road Ranger course to upgrade my current licence class and given my 20+ years’ experience driving trucks. Ashleigh Daley the office manager recommended “the one-day course not usually recommended for most people as it is a lot to learn in one day and most people get deferred for more training. Our standard recommendation is very minimum two-day course and ideally a three-day course”. I thought, fair enough this could be a money grab but took the advice and booked in the two-day course. From the moment I entered the office on day one I was greeted with an unfriendly office manager who was standoffish and it felt like I was interrupting her. At that point the trainer by the name of Colin yelled out to me that he on his lunch/smoke break, and he would be with me soon. Moving forward, Colins demeanour was rude, obnoxious and you can feel his sense of frustration which is particularly destructive for a learning to drive environment. I found his instructions to be confusing and contradictory with comments like “Put your foot down-You are better off being over the speed limit than under it”. He does not leave you feeling confident or get the sense he is working with you. Another major issue arose when I tried to reschedule Day two of my training due to a genuine illness. Ashleigh advised via email that to be able to reschedule (without forfeiting the fees paid), a medical certificate would be required. I produced in total 3 medical certificates that day and received emails back and forth from Ashleigh and Paul Collins- Managing Director- throughout the day -stating they did not accept the certificates provided for several reasons like, wrong form, wrong wording, signed by a Nurse Practitioner not a Doctor so on and so on, before the final certificate was deemed acceptable. From these negative interactions and making it difficult to reschedule you get a good sense of the company values and the type of people you are dealing with. I knew from here there was no way I was passing my upcoming evaluation. Regardless, I attended Day two and was pleasantly surprised to be paired with a pleasant, informative, and patient instructor who acknowledged “something would have to go very wrong for me not to pass” Unfortunately, before the assessment part of my training commenced the trainer received a call from Ashleigh in the office, advising he would not be doing the assessment with me I was to turn back to the office and Colin would take over. Colin took over the assessment phase with the same rude demeanour from the previous day of training and I did not pass due to some minor errors- which is what it is. I have since gone to another company for my licence who were very professional, supportive and easy to deal with in comparison. It is my hope that this review might be taken on board, so others do not have to go through the same negative experience. George Mostert Director

Hi George, We are extremely disheartened to see your negative and misleading review. We still stand by our statement that we are open to constructive criticism and are always looking for ways to improve however at no point throughout our interactions have you attempted to contact us to voice your concerns. There are a few points in your review that we would like to address as we don’t feel you have accurately represented or provided any context to the situation. Very simply you failed your DoT assessment under audio video and GPS recording for failing to give way. We feel that is not a reflection upon our training and rather an unfortunate judgement call on your behalf. While we understand that is disappointing, mistakes under pressure do happen but we don’t feel it’s fair to leave a disgruntled review because of it. - On your first day, you were booked in for a 12pm time slot, you arrived over an hour early. While we encourage punctuality, we did not have a trainer available to tend to you prior to your booking start time. When you arrived Ashleigh politely advised that you were significantly early and explained that she did not have anyone available at that time. She did however advise that she would be with you as soon as possible to begin your enrolment process. - We pride ourselves on having a professional, friendly and extremely qualified staffing team. We strongly believe this one of our biggest assets and all our previous reviews/feedback over many years has reflected this. We therefore don’t agree with the allegations that Ashleigh was unfriendly nor that Colin was obnoxious, rude or frustrated in any way. We have a strict training guide/procedures that all trainers follow and implement to ensure consistency across the board this includes enforcing all road rules. - On your second day, Lauren emailed us at 7:41am to advise you would not be attending your 12pm booking time slot that day. While this is very short notice and at our discretion whether or not we are able to reschedule without forfeiting fees paid, we do understand things happen so we requested a medical cert as stated in our terms and conditions which you received and agreed to upon booking. Lauren sent through two Click Clinic “Absence Certificate Request” which are purchased online. This is no way proves that a person has been deemed medically unfit by a doctor. The request to provide a legitimate and authentic medical cert was not unreasonable and we are not legally obligated to accept an online cert. A courtesy reschedule was agreed once a valid medical cert was received. - Lauren advised via email that she would like your rescheduled booking to be in at least two weeks time due to your schedule. We provided 5 different dates/times ranging from the 9th Feb to 21st Feb. Lauren chose the one that was almost three weeks away despite the fact we offered available dates well before that. - On the day of your reschedule, we had an unexpected medical emergency of our own which resulted in one of our staff members being admitted to hospital. To further minimise disruption to you and our other clients, we juggled the day as best as we could to ensure our service commitments could still be met as providing a top quality service is of the utmost importance to us. This was explained to you and other affected clients on the day to which you were understanding and did not voice any concerns. Feedback forms are provided to each client that attends our service however you are under no obligation to complete one. These remain confidential and anyone who does choose to provide feedback is encouraged to do so with honesty. On your feedback form you ticked the box “Strongly Agree” for all sections including – booking in with WADT was easy and stress free and that you would recommend WADT to family, friends and others. While we are disappointed with your negative review, we wish you all the best. Regards, Paul Collins Managing Director

Fantastic experience: I decided to upgrade my license and researched many training courses. I even walked in and had chats with some of them. Well what can I say I’m lucky enough to come across with WestAus. From the beginning the consultation with Ashleigh ticked all of my boxes. Then when I booked 2 days course first day was so amazing and Colin as a trainer has made sure that I’m actually understanding everything what on the road can happen. Colin was so amazing if I had chance I would choose him over my brother about training. He’s so calm so nice so cool. He never gets aggressive, angry and his voice tone never changes (opposite to my brother ) I’m more than satisfied and can’t even express my appreciation to the WestAus team. Thank you Colin. Thank you cosh. Thank you Paul . Thank you Ashleigh. I highly recommend WestAus for everyone who wants the quality friendly people. Mr. Mc diver now:-)

Fantastic experience: Just wanted to give a big shoutout to WestAus Driver Training for helping me pass my MC truck test. They were absolutely brilliant from the get-go. Super friendly and focused on helping me succeed in every way. I failed 2 tests along the way both of which were my errors in judgement they were patient and encouraged me to keep going. Gotta give a special mention to my trainer, Josh. He was absolutely brilliant! His training skills were top-notch, and his videos were a game-changer. With his guidance, I passed my test with flying colors! I would highly recommend WestAus Driver Training to anyone looking for truck training.

Hi Lindsay, we are disappointed to see your negative review. We are always open to constructive criticism and providing a top quality service is of the utmost importance to us. However we do not feel this review is warranted considering we feel you are disgruntled that you were not meeting the standards set by the Department of Transport in order to obtain a MC drivers licence. When you originally booked in for a three day MC Road Ranger course with us and felt it was too hard on the first day, you requested to swap to the MC automatic instead for the remainer your course. While this isn’t always possible, client satisfaction is extremely important to us so we changed our schedule to help you out. Due to your change of mind and request to change trucks mid-way through your course, this resulted in us also needing to allocate you a different trainer. Unfortunately at the end of the three day course you still required additional training as you were not meeting the standard for a Statement of Attainment and unable to complete your procedures independently and without any prompting. We then did not hear back from you until almost 3 months later via phone call. During of which you became agitated towards our office manager as she was unable to provide you with a morning lesson slot for the up coming week as they were already booked for courses. She provided you with numerous timeslots for the up coming two weeks, none of which you were happy with. This then resulted in you having a poor attitude, using inappropriate language and a complete lack of respect towards her, yet you still decided to book in for a 3 hour MC-A Automatic lesson for the following Monday afternoon. At no point throughout the booking process did you request a particular trainer. We always do our very best to keep consistency of trainers for all of our clients, however that being said this is a variable we are unable to guarantee when making bookings as sometimes things happen that are out of our control. Unfortunately this did occur on Monday as one of our trainers was deemed medically unfit by his doctor and unable to attend work however we were still able to provide you with the MC-A Automatic 3 hour lesson you booked with one of our qualified trainers. We feel that throughout your time with us at WestAus we have provided you with numerous options and opportunities to assist you in reaching your goals and we are saddened that this hasn’t been able to be resolved in an amicable manner, however any untoward/abusive behaviour towards our staff is unaccepted and will not tolerated. We wish you all the best with your future endeavours. Regards, Paul

Fantastic experience: As an Operations Manager for a business, I highly recommend WestAus Driver Training. After I had sent a few drivers to upskill through other training centres, I was less than satisfied. By chance, I found WestAus Driver Training and decided to upskill a few drivers (From HR to MC) and I received extremely good feedback from my drivers. After that, I decided to upskill myself, and went to see WestAus DT to get my MC (from my HR). I had a great experience, all the staff at WestAus DT were extremely upbeat and happy, and my trainer Josh was truly great - taking the time to make sure I understood all the requirements of an MC driver and providing exceptional training and tools to make sure I could meet these requirements, and eventually to pass my MC assessment. I will definitely be utilising WestAus DT to upskill more of my drivers and employees, and if I could give them a 6 star rating I would!

Fantastic experience: I got my HC road-ranger license here, very professional team from the office manager (Ashley) to all the instructors.

Fantastic experience: Very great group of guys, makes themselves available and all talented trainers, fair testers and focused on actually teaching you how to drive and not just taking your money. Did a HR Synchromesh, despite what you hear a half day of training is not enough to pass, this company offer a 2 day course of apx 9 hours of driving. My strongest advice is not to bother with half day courses places unless you want to fail your DOT test over and over.

William Stevenson 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently completed/obtained my MC licence using WestAus Driver Training. I cannot fault the trainer (Rob) or the assessor/trainer (Paul) in the slightest. Their level of professionalism was incredible. The trainers made the course/drive(s) enjoyable and explained exactly what is expected of me to gain the MC qualification whilst having a good laugh along the way. I failed the driving assessment the first time due to my own impatience, Paul explained in detail where I went wrong and how to make sure I don’t do the same mistake moving forward. Due to work commitments I wouldn’t have been able to resit the Driver Training for a few months; Paul took this onboard and allowed me to resit on a Sunday. The level of dedication this company has for their students is unbelievable and I could not recommend them enough. Paul, Rob and Ash thankyou for your time and expertise in helping me gain my MC licence.

After being pushed back by another trainer, twice for over a month I rang WADT at 6pm on a Tuesday night and Paul answered offering me an availability 7 days later. The training, paitence and offer to repeat certain tasks from Trainer Rob was next level. On my assessment, Paul did nothing but make me feel comfortable and reassured. What a pleasure team WADT Good on you all.

dylan cooper 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My experience at WestAus Driver training was absolutely exceptional! Paul the owner is running an excellent professional business that can be seen throughout all aspects of the company. The booking of my two day road ranger course was simple and easy, the location was extremely easy to find, all staff members were friendly and accomodating, and the trucks themselves were very well kept high quality machines. Vince my trainer went absolutely above and beyond to ensure I was given the proper HR road ranger training experience. His wealth of knowledge of the vehicle along with his calm instructional teaching manner saw me driving the truck smoothly within an hour of getting behind the wheel. After getting the practice up in low traffic areas to build my confidence and ability we were soon on busy roads where I felt well and truly equipped to take on anything that would come my way. Of course i was still not perfect but Vince continued to talk me through it all in his calm instructional manner which not only improved my driving ability but also kept me calm. The following day after more practice I sat the test and passed the first time around. I can’t thank Paul, Vince and everyone else at West Aus Driver Training enough for making my Road Ranger experience such a positive one. If you are considering getting your HR licence I cannot recommend West Aus Driver Training enough.

Fantastic experience: Completed my MC course, training and assessment with WADT, and I couldnt be happier, or have picked a better company! From the very start, just my initial enquiry phone call, Ashleigh was extremely helpful and had great advice, was easy to talk to and made the booking in process a breeze. Day 1 and 2 of training, Amber was my trainer and she was absolutely awesome! Shes been trucking for years, so was extremely knowledgeable, explained and instructed everything very clearly and professionally, was great to get on with and very friendly, made me feel comfortable, and answered any questions I had clearly and willingly. Day 2, test day, Paul took me out for my assessment, and again, absolutely awesome! Many years of trucking experience meant he is also extremely knowledgeable, extremely helpful when needed, instructed very clearly and professionally, and was friendly also, making the entire process a bit more comfortable. Overall, my entire experience from start to finish was handled professionally, efficiently, and in a freindly manner. Would highly recommend West Aus Driver Training to anyone looking to get their HR to MC class license. Thanks again guys!

Kinley D 4 years ago

Negative experience: Stay away from this driving training they are just money grabbers... saying you need more lessons after I paid $1450 for the 2 days driving lessons package and in addition I paid $250 for two hours lesson as per their recommendation. Ended up no driving test which I paid for and all my money went in drain. Driving instructor( Paul ) is more concerned about his truck, rather focusing on the lesson which I paid for, how unprofessional and worst HR driving school.

WestAus Driver Training
WestAus Driver Training

Hi Kinley, its unfortunate that you think we are money grabbers considering that the course you booked in for was for the HR unrestricted road ranger 2 day course, which unfortunately you did not grasp the concept of, or progress past the low range part of the gearbox on your first day. Out of courtesy to you we offered to transfer you to the HR-B synchromesh at no extra cost on a day that was available for the truck and yourself, losing us a days work. During the 2nd day of your training in the HR-B synchro, you demonstrated limited clutch, brake, accelerator and steering control, forward planning or initiative for the safe and fluent operation required to meet the standard set by the Department of Transport. As you were so rude and chauvinistic to Amber (and Ashleigh our office manager) we transferred your training to Paul where your skills still did not improve, when you realized this you demonstrated absolute contempt for the vehicle and were actively smashing gears out of frustration. Not to mention the cash on day lesson you failed to show for, or the fact you stated on the last day you trained with Paul you said you expected a guaranteed licence for the money you had paid. Our policy at WADT is to ensure all drivers meet the DoT standards of competence before sitting an assessment. We are sorry that you feel this way.

Nathan 4 years ago

Negative experience: I'd highly recommend you go elsewhere. They have one trainer who is very good and I have a pleasurable experience with, the second needs to look at a career change. It got to the point I almost pulled the truck over and was going to stop the lesson. If you don't enjoy teaching people you really shouldn't be in a position that requires you to do so. More time on the lesson was spent with the instructor complaining on how students drive and how much money everything is worth. Maybe if more effort is put into teaching less damage would be done to their trucks. The roadworthiness of the trucks is also questionable with exposed wires all over the dash.

WestAus Driver Training
WestAus Driver Training

Hi Nathan, We are sorry to hear that you haven't had a good experience with parts of your training. The exposed wiring you are referring to was part of the steering column shroud that had been removed to allow access to components for part numbers, which had to be ordered from eastern states. The issue has been rectified and the shroud has been replaced. If you would like to discuss the other matter regarding the reasoning behind mentioning costs to you in a private and confidential manner feel free to call us to arrange a time to do so on 0400 497 333

This was awesome it allowed me to take a breath, refocus and continue on. From never sitting in the seat or driving a hr unrestricted to passing my assessment on the same day one a one day training course this just proves the quality and approach for there business. Highly recommended and would definitely go back for further training on a higher licence. Thank you westaus driver training

Any question I had before I booked my training was clearly answered with a quick turn around time. On the day of my training and assessment they made me feel comfortable and training and advice were of the highest quality. Would not look anywhere else do do a truck course now and if I ever need to further my training I will definitely be returning to them.
