PTDC - 75 Years of Driver Excellence

Episode notes

AMTA's Kelsey Hipkin and long-time planner of the PTDC, Michelle Spacil, chat with Members of our Professional Truck Driving Championship (PTDC) Committee: Matt Geib , PTDC Marshall, Don Achtemichuk , PTDC Co-Marshall, and Don MacDonald , PTDC Track Master. In our conversation, we highlight AMTA's Professional Truck Driving Championship (PTDC) which returns May 31, 2025, celebrating 75 years of Driver Excellence! We discuss how this event works, the specifics of the course and what it takes to navigate it, our collaboration with the Alberta Sheriffs, the importance of having an event that celebrates commercial drivers, and more. Commercial drivers ensure goods and services in Alberta get to where they need to go, and this event serves to highlight the skillsets required behind the wheel. Drivers participate in one of four categories: Straight Truck, Tandem Single-Axle Pup, Tandem Bunk, and B-Train. Driver and Volunteer registration opens Monday, March 17 (registration closes May 23) ! Please note registration for both Drivers and Volunteers goes quickly. Learn more about PTDC on our website .
