PTS Driver Training and Testing Center: Rising to become a model in the North Central region

DNUM_CEZAEZCABH 08:12

(Baonghean) - PTS Driver Training and Testing Center (abbreviated as PTS Center) under Petrolimex Nghe Tinh Transport and Service Joint Stock Company was established in 2008. After nearly 10 years of operation, PTS Center has become the leading prestigious driver training address in Nghe An province and since January 2017 is one of 3 facilities organizing on-site testing to issue car driving licenses.

Invest in the right direction

Established in 2008, at a time when the demand for training and granting driving licenses, especially for driving cars, was not high, many people considered the investment of tens of billions of dong by Petrolimex Nghe Tinh Transport and Service Joint Stock Company to open a training facility quite risky. With the goal of training and then organizing testing right at the center, the company chose to invest methodically right from the establishment of the PTS Center. Along with building a standard training and testing scale, the center also built a team of experienced teachers with good pedagogical skills. With spacious and airy classrooms and theory testing rooms, a synchronous networked computer system, a curbed practice yard, and test arrangements and traffic situations similar to the standards of the provincial Driving Testing Center, it is very convenient for students to practice driving skills, take graduation exams as well as take the test.

Mr. Tran Nhat Duat, in Quynh Luu district, is a student of the C license class, course 42 of the Center, said: Before deciding to register for driving lessons, I consulted many places and through friends who had learned to drive, I decided to choose PTS Driving Training and Testing Center because the facilities and equipment here are good, and the teachers are enthusiastic. After finishing the course, the test is taken right on the spot, which is very convenient, familiar with the yard and the car, so when taking the test, I am very confident and save time and part of the travel expenses. Sharing the same opinion with the students, Mr. Tran Xuan Hien - a teacher at the center added: Since being tested at the center right in Vinh city, the teachers and students are very excited, creating conditions for students to get acquainted with the testing yard system, so the quality of teaching and learning has been greatly improved.

Since the exam was held at the Center right in Vinh city, students' travel has been convenient, so the number of students registering at the PTS Center has increased. For cars, with the permission of the Department of Transport, the Center organizes monthly exams to issue driving licenses for cars of all classes from 1 to 2 courses. For A1 motorbikes, the Department of Transport allows the Center to organize weekly exams to issue A1 motorbike driving licenses from 4 to 5 courses on Saturday or Sunday afternoons.

Rise to new heights

After many years of efforts, the Vietnam Road Administration granted license No. 03/TCDBVN-QLPTNL on January 12, 2017 certifying the driving test center as qualified to operate. This is a big step forward and an extremely important new position for PTS Driving Training and Testing Center in particular and Petrolimex Nghe Tinh Transport and Services Joint Stock Company in general.

To become a training and testing center as it is today, the Center has invested in purchasing many new vehicles, upgrading the modern yard system, ensuring that the tests are in line with the standards for synchronous testing, installing an automatic scoring system; continuing to invest in renovating facilities, ensuring working conditions, and supervision by the Testing Council. After 3 months of being licensed, the Center has organized 4 driving license testing courses. In the coming time, to meet the training needs according to new requirements, the Center is continuing to invest in additional vehicles to meet the regulations of the Ministry of Transport and the General Department of Roads. Specifically, along with ensuring vehicles for training and testing, the Center also invested in additional automatic transmission vehicles to serve the training and testing of automatic transmission B1 class. In addition, to improve the quality of the teaching staff, the Center regularly sends teachers to attend training courses organized by the General Department of Roads and sends teachers to attend training courses to improve transport skills.

Mr. Tran Trung Thanh - Director of PTS Driver Training and Testing Center said: Being recognized as a qualified driving testing center is a new step forward demonstrating the capacity and maturity, and at the same time, it is also a big challenge for the Center in attracting students. Currently, the competition in this field is based on the quality of training and traffic skills of students, so the challenge ahead to attract students is not small. To become the leading prestigious driving training and testing address in the province, PTS Center continues to improve the quality of training, create the best conditions in terms of facilities for students to practice driving skills as well as take the test at the Center, take care of the teaching staff, and organize good testing sessions in accordance with current regulations.

With the goal of rising to a worthy new position, PTS Center strives to not only be the top choice for students who need to equip themselves with driving skills but also a model for the province and the North Central region.
