It is not a Class 1 or commercial-licence course and it is not air-brake (Z) endorsement training: the licence class and endorsements the vehicle requires are issued separately and this certificate does not stand in for any of them. Exact Hours-of-Service limits and the full defect list come from the current federal and provincial rules and NSC Schedule 1.
