Willyz Academy Cadet Consultation
Helping you build your pathway into the New Zealand heavy transport industry and beyond. Building a life of self sustainability, accountability and ownership.
What to expect...
You don't need to already have a heavy vehicle licence to book a consultation.
Whether you're starting from the beginning with a Class 1 learner licence, already hold a full Class 1 licence and are looking toward Class 2, or you're considering progressing further through the heavy vehicle licensing pathway, your consultation can be tailored to where you are now.
Your consultation is a full one-hour, one-on-one video session with William McCreedy, Founder of Willyz Academy & Cadetship.
This is your time to ask questions, discuss your goals and work through the areas that are most relevant to your journey.
Depending on your needs, we can discuss:
🚦 Starting from the beginning
Understanding the steps involved in getting your first licence and beginning your journey toward heavy transport.
🚛 Heavy Transport Career Guidance
Exploring potential pathways into trucking and the wider transport and supply chain industry.
🪪 Licensing Pathway Planning
Understanding the progression from Class 2 through to higher licence classes and relevant endorsements.
📚 Class 2 Kickstart Guide Support
Working through questions or areas of the guide you're unsure about.
💰 Licensing & Financial Planning
Creating a realistic plan for saving toward licences, training and other costs associated with progressing into the industry.
🎯 Your Personal Pathway
Looking at where you are now, where you want to go, and what practical steps could help you get there.
Helping You Achieve a Better Version of Yourself
At Willyz Academy & Cadetship, I believe that building a career is only one part of building a better life.
My own journey through heavy transport has taught me plenty. Some lessons through success, and others through mistakes, setbacks and simply figuring things out along the way.
I believe experience becomes more valuable when it can be shared.
That's one of the reasons I founded Willyz Academy & Cadetship.
Through these consultations, I want to share what I've learned from my own experiences in heavy transport, employment, licensing and career development, and help you apply that knowledge to your own journey.
Whether you're starting with no licence, preparing for your Class 2, looking at your next licence progression, or simply trying to work out where you want your career to go, this is an opportunity to sit down, ask questions and work through it together.
But the goal isn't for me to tell you what your life should look like.
It's about helping you take ownership of your own pathway.
Self-Sustainability
Developing the knowledge, skills and independence to build a future you can support yourself with.
Accountability
Taking responsibility for where you are, where you want to go, and the actions required to get there.
Ownership
Taking control of your decisions, your development and ultimately your future.
These are values I try to apply in my own life, and they're values I want Willyz Academy & Cadetship to represent.
I don't have all the answers.
What I do have is experience, knowledge, mistakes I've learned from, and a genuine desire to help others navigate the road ahead with a little more clarity.
Your journey is yours.
My role is to help you find the road forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
If I'm not happy with my purchase can I get a refund?
Consultation Cancellation & Refund Policy
Because each consultation involves reserving a dedicated one-hour appointment, bookings represent a commitment of time from both the Cadet and Willyz Academy & Cadetship.
If you change your mind or decide not to proceed after booking, the consultation fee is generally non-refundable.
If you need to change your appointment, please provide reasonable notice. Where possible, your existing booking can be rescheduled to another suitable time rather than refunded.
If you do not attend your scheduled consultation without reasonable notice, the session may be considered forfeited and a new booking may be required.
If Willyz Academy & Cadetship is unable to provide the consultation, or a genuine technical issue prevents the consultation from taking place, an alternative appointment will be arranged or another appropriate resolution provided.
If you believe the service has not been provided in accordance with the description or applicable consumer guarantees, please contact Willyz Academy & Cadetship so the matter can be considered and resolved appropriately.
This consultation provides personalised educational and career guidance. It does not guarantee employment, licensing outcomes, funding approval, income, or any particular career result.
Nothing in this policy limits any rights you may have under applicable New Zealand consumer law.
How does appointment scheduling work?
Once you've completed your purchase, simply email the Academy directly and we'll let you know the next steps for booking your appointment.
Is it possible to buy coaching more than once?
Absolutely! Your pathway doesn't stop after one session. If you'd like further guidance, simply purchase another consultation and you'll have another 1-hour, 1-on-1 session to continue working through your pathway.
