Driver- & Transport Academy

Practical and comprehensive training

The Transport and Driver Academy forms the core of our drivers' training and further education. Here, both apprentices and experienced employees are systematically trained, further educated and prepared for the demands of everyday working life. The aim is to optimally combine practice, theory and modern technologies. Our driving school trains apprentices on an ongoing basis with its own instructors and supports Galliker Junior Drivers in their training as chauffeurs. In addition, all compulsory CZV courses can be completed at the Driver Academy.

Department rotation: learning through practical experience

A special feature of the apprenticeship is the rotation through different departments. This allows apprentices to acquire the necessary know-how in the truck workshop, vehicle mechanics, various warehouses and platforms, as well as in transportation, in order to achieve optimum preparation for the qualification process. It goes without saying that we provide practical and personal support and encouragement for our apprentices.

Junior driver training

For interested young people who are enthusiastic about driving and would like to learn to drive a truck, Galliker Transport AG offers the Junior Driver Program. This is where the future drivers of tomorrow are trained.

Further training for experienced drivers

Experienced employees also benefit from the Academies: they can complete the mandatory CZV continuing education course and further training directly in-house at Galliker. This ensures that all drivers are always up to date with the latest legal and operational requirements.

Special highlights

A highlight of the Driver Academy is the modern and practical training that combines theory, practice and innovative technologies. Apprentices and employees benefit from the new facilities for theoretical training and practical training on modern vehicles. Another plus point is the conversion of the two driving school trucks from diesel to electric, allowing employees to get to know and use modern, environmentally friendly drive technologies directly.
