FAQ
AZ questions
Is AZ a separate Ontario licence class?
No. AZ is common industry shorthand that combines a base licence class with the Z air-brake endorsement.
Can I start training without knowing exactly which licence I need?
Yes. Start by identifying the vehicle and job you want, then confirm the correct Ontario licence class and prerequisites before paying for regulated training.
Does Coach2Coast automatically claim every commercial course is approved?
No. The site separates licence-pathway information from regulated program approval. Enrolment should only be offered for programs for which the required approvals are in place.
