Patented Training Methodologies for Superior Results

Smarter Training. Safer Roads. Stronger Teams

At ATS, we know that effective driver training is about more than memorization. It’s about building safety awareness, practical skills, and confidence—while reducing risks and costs for organizations. That’s why we developed our patented Quadrant™ Method, a unique approach that combines advanced technology, proven teaching techniques, and real-world feedback to create safer, better-prepared commercial drivers.

The ATS Quadrant™ Method

Our patented Quadrant™ Method is unlike any other training model in the industry. By blending four key elements—Instructor-Led Training, Computer-Based Training, Simulation-Based Training, and Selective Directional Input (real-time feedback)—we create an immersive, non-linear learning process where each element reinforces the others. This approach keeps trainees engaged, accelerates skills development, and ensures lessons stick.

Whether it’s practicing a maneuver in a simulator, responding to motion-based feedback, or reinforcing concepts in the classroom, drivers gain deeper understanding through repetition across multiple learning channels.

The result? Safer drivers, stronger performance, and greater confidence behind the wheel.

Multi-sensory inputs (motion, sound, haptics) help drivers learn how to react effectively.

Higher Employee Retention

Engaged, confident drivers stay longer and perform better.

Reduced Costs

Fewer accidents, less equipment damage, and more efficient training save organizations money.

Testimonials

We’re proud to count some of the transportation industry’s leading companies as customers.

After 21 years in business, American Driver Training Academy found a game changing solution in the ATS FleetMaster simulator. Initially skeptical about simulators, our instructors and staff quickly became fans after experiencing the exceptional realism and benefits of the FleetMaster 6NG. It has significantly improved student safety, reduced mechanical costs, and virtually eliminated motion sickness. The ATS team’s support is unparalleled, and our ‘One and Done’ rate increased by 35%. We highly recommend ATS for any CDL training program.

I highly recommend ATS for driver simulation training. Since purchasing two FleetMaster simulators in 2017, we’ve been impressed with both the product’s quality and ATS’s exceptional customer service. The simulators effectively adapt to various learning styles, offering immediate feedback and reinforcement, which has proven invaluable. A recent graduate credited the simulator training with saving his life during a real-life emergency. ATS’s support has been outstanding over the years.

Dave Dein, Principal, Patterson High School

Our school successfully implemented a CDL training program with the help of a simulator from ATS, thanks to a grant from the state of Indiana. Within just seven months, the simulator played a crucial role in three students earning their CDL licenses. This tool has greatly improved our program’s efficiency and safety. The success of our program has also attracted donations of trucks and trailers from other organizations. The ATS team provided excellent support throughout the process. We highly recommend their services.
