Awesome group of people with A+ customer service! I attended a 24 hour course to prepare for my cdl driving test and I'm glad I did it with NCTDA. All my interactions with the staff were great and I highly recommend!

I took the 24 hour school bus class, and my instructor Gary was great! He was incredibly knowledgeable from a lifetime of experience and, as needed, was both extremely firm and extremely patient with me -- striking a balance that worked really well! There is a ton to learn and 24 hours was barely enough -- I cannot imagine trying to learn all this with the 10 hour course. Everyone I have met at NCTDA has been super helpful -- there is nothing like working with professional people who really know their stuff.

The whole 3 week program with NCTDA was an incredible experience. Instructors are knowledgeable and patient even with the most inexperienced drivers. Travis and Janice both have their specialties and insight for teaching precise skills. With these great instructors and their short but thorough program anyone who’s looking to get their CDL should highly consider this place!

This was a great place to recive your CDL training for a bus driver. The instructor was very knowledgeable, easy going, and his experience in bus driving was very helpful. The day of the test the gentleman giving the exam was great, patient, and friendly. I learned a lot and will recommend All Seasons to anyone.

I obtained my class "A" CDL with NCTDA In August of 2023. The instructors were great all the way through the class. Janice was the instructor of the class room portion and she did a fantastic job explaining and answering questions. I learned something from every one of the instructors out on the range as well as the daily drive portion. Thank you all (Nick, Ryan, Travis, Janice, Dave) for being patient and giving us the individual help that we needed to be successful in your class. I would highly recommend NCTDA to anyone wanting to get your CDL!!

It was one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life. It was knowledge from beginning to end. All instructors are very nice and educated and very informative. I came from another state to go with Northern Colorado trucking because I felt it was the best fit for me thank you to the owner and the instructors

After a long career in the IT field, I suffered a layoff and found myself unemployed. I had long romanticized life on the road and sought out a local truck driving school, hoping for a career change. My first point of contact at NCTDA was Ronda. I found her to be exceptionally helpful, organized and very knowledgeable about the CDL process. I passed my DOT physical, studied for and received my permit - itself no easy task - and looked forward to my first day of class. There were 6 of us - all younger than me - and from lots of different backgrounds. Janice was our teacher. She was very dedicated, funny, brought her own experiences to the class, and was both very driven to get us to learn, as well as being very down to earth. By the end of the first week we were done with quizzes and out on the range just a mile or so from the classroom. It was all smiles as Janice drove us around the abandoned airfield in "Candycane" - a massive sleeper cab tractor and long trailer. It seemed daunting to think we would soon be driving such a vehicle. As an older individual, with close to 4 decades of 2 and 4 wheel driving experience, I stupidly thought that learning to drive a truck would be a doddle...WRONG! This was both physically and mentally difficult. I had a lot of manual shifting habits from cars that needed re-training for a truck. I had never backed a trailer before and soon found myself close to the bottom of the class on these skills. It was very humbling. On the range, Ryan and Travis, along with Dave and John all brought their own flavor seasoning, years of experience, and excellent teaching skills (and humor) to the mix. To juggle all the inputs and outputs - the pre-trip, the double-clutch shifting, the spatial awareness, the defensive driving techniques, the parallel parking, the loading dock.... was a mental and physical workout. There were days I came home and just laid on the bed. It was the last but one day when things really seemed to click. I mastered shifting and got to enjoy the roads around Horsetooth, and by this time there was a real camaraderie with the fellow students and instructors as we set up our tests. I am glad to report that today I passed my test - the pre-trip, the backing maneuvers, and the drive - and I have my CDL A. If I can do it, I bet you can do to. I have a new-found respect for the men and women who spend long hours at the wheel safely delivering all the things that we consume, while suffering some awful drivers, road and weather conditions. But it feels amazing and I am looking forward to my new career.

Went to this school because they are the best, the trainers teach you from start to finish. I went in not knowing how to drive a manual or back up a small trailer for that matter, Left knowing how to drive a semi with no restrictions and how to do backing maneuvers great school the staff is all professional and very knowledgeable, if you want your class A definitely attend this course!

I attended this April 2023 the school to get my class A CDL and my passenger and school bus endorsements. I passed all tests this week. It was not always easy for me to learn all those maneuvers like offset backing, parallel parking and alley dock backing. All my instructors never gave up on me until I succeeded. Thank you for all your help. I can highly recommend the Northern Colorado Truck Driving Academy.

Ronda, Janis, Ryan, Travis, and Nick are awesome! All of them are amazing people and are so so helpful. I’m so glad I went through this school to get my CDL, i honestly wouldn’t recommend anywhere else. If you want to go to a school where they actually help you learn and not just for a paycheck this is definitely the way to go. Thank you guys so much!

Just completed this course 11/18. And I will say hands down the best experience. From the classroom to the driving range , I was very impressed with all of the instructors. If you are looking to get a Class A CDL this is the place you want to go! You are taught right away about the importance of pre trips and logs, which in the real world will make you a way better driver. I loved the fact that we got a total of 9hrs of real drive time. I did my drives with Travis and kyle , and both of these guys are top notch instructors, taught me so much about being on the road and how to be safe and efficient. In the classroom nick killed it. I couldn’t ask for a better engaging classroom instructor. You get PLENTY of time to practice all backing maneuvers in the yard and I loved that. This course shows you the basics and more. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a class A! And thanks guys!

I am very pleased with my experience attending this school. From beginning to end they stress what is needed by the FED to pass and get your CDL. For the money, it is a perfect compressed class to prepare you for your test and the instructors are amazing at what they do. It can seem pretty daunting at first but trust the process and make sure to keep yourself behind the wheel throughout the course and you should have no issues passing your test. This school is to provide everything needed to pass but you MUST give your all. This course is designed to give you 50% and you must actively provide the other 50% through application. This is a no BS school and I love that. If you are serious about getting your CDL, I highly recommend NCTDA. Well worth the money considering how much you can make through a career in truck driving. Thank you Dave, Ryan, Sean, Janice, Jon and Travis for your knowledge, wisdom and dedication to making sure your students pass. It was a pleasure!

Good training, great instructors. I learned a lot about trucks and driving. A lot of information needed to pass the CDL test, but instructors were thorough and patient, and by the time I tested, I had it down pat. Plenty of practice time in a variety of trucks. I would recommend this school to anyone thinking about getting a commercial license.
