Early indicators show adult driver education training in North is successful

New adult driver education training in Northern Manitoba is increasing employment.

 

In The Pas last week, Jobs Minister Kevin Chief said many entry level positions require applicants to have a valid Class 5 driver’s license, and this program has given people an opportunity to build their confidence and increase their employability.

 

Since being launched in The Pas and Thompson, two participants have obtained their full Class 5 driver’s license and 20 have obtained their class 5 learner’s license and are working on their in-vehicle practical training.

 

Minister Chief says the program will be expanded into Flin Flon in April.
