Calgary's Best Driving School
We are Calgary's premier driving school. Whatever your driver training needs, we can help. If you're concerned about the safety of your teen or yourself on the road, we can keep everyone safe by greatly reducing the risk of an accident. Skilled, informed drivers are the safest drivers. If you need lower insurance rates for your teen, completion of our classes will reduce the cost. If you want to learn to drive defensively, we have a special class just for you. If you need special driving skills for a new job or career, we offer those as well.
And our classes are competively priced with other Calgary driving schools.
We only use the best and fully qualified driving instructors who know how to make your class time effective and enjoybable.
We prepare you for written exams so you'll pass easily. We take the fear out of road tests by offering practice exams right before the real ones. We'll even drop you off at the registry.
We have been in the business of teaching young and new Calgary drivers since 1970.
With our expertise and experience, you can rest assured that your young driver will get the skills to drive Calgary's busy streets. Youth and driving can be a lethal mix without the kind of quality, experienced instruction Derek Brown's Academy provides.
Besides the basic driving courses, we also offer a brush up course, defensive driving in-classroom course, air brake class, and truck training.
How will I be trained?
According to Alberta Infrastructure and Transportation, new drivers with a Class 7 Learner's permit and a Class 5 Graduated Driver's Licence are required to complete at least 15 hours of lecture and 10 hours of in-vehicle instruction. Drivers who already have a Class 5 non-GDL licence must complete at least 15 hours of classroom and a minimum of 6 hours of in-vehicle training. These hours are required
to receive a Course Completion Certificate, used for an insurance discount.
We surpass the Alberta regulations in driving and classroom instruction at a lower price than other driving schools.
