School Bus Driver Training

Purpose

School bus drivers work in a mobile, dynamic environment. Traffic, routes, weather, and student distraction can all affect driver performance. We entrust our children to their care, and want to ensure they have the best training available. PCAT Driver Training provides school-based bus and car driver education to help drivers improve and maintain the highest standard in school transportation.
