At 1st I woulda recommended this driving school to absolutely anyone that wanted to become a professional driver... now I wouldn’t recommend this school to my worst enemy. I had to go back to school & get my class 1 back so I did the E&E & I was one of the 1st 2 people in all of Alberta to do this program. The instructor that taught this class was absolutely fantastic & knew it right to the point. He was vary professional & went beyond any expectations that could be asked of one. However as class went on.. this instructor was up for a job promotion, there for one of the other senior instructor’s felt the need to cause some hardship that then caused issue’s with the completion of the course. This went on for quit some time & Alberta Commercial Transportation got involved.. meanwhile this was happening not only did the senior instructor not give a darn who he was effecting or the hardship he was causing.. as well it seemed like the new owner didn’t & till this vary day dosent care a bit. However by this person’s actions I lost out on the job that I was wanting to get back into.. so that costed me $75,000.00 more a year. The manager from the get while this was all happening.. ( was absolutely acting on my side, saying this is gonna get resolved & this & that.. for weeks & weeks... & weeks.. & stated from the get go I would get refunded my monies back minimum & that was confident that the person that caused this wouldn’t have a job & be before commercial transport to have the teaching license pulled & this & that.. I received texts messages every other day ... saying this was gonna be dealt with & I would be given a meeting date to receive my monies ) Nothing yet has come of anything.. Prior to all this I recommended this place to 4 of my vary good friends, & a couple of them been getting the run around too!! I would not recommend this place at all no more Read Less

Excellent instructors and staff, I went to the school while it was owned by Dale/Barb and under the new owners as well. The quality has stayed the same, at the top.The instructors and staff genuinely care about their students. Although if you are young (under 21) have zero experience and zero connections don't expect the same treatment from the Alberta Government and 99.5% of all transportation companies, even after getting your Class 1 MELT license.

I did my air brakes yesterday, and these guys are really great. My class instructor was John P he made it fun, and not boring. Then I was tested by Jeff H, another great instructor. They really really know their stuff, I highly recommend coming here for the course. 😁👍 I just did my class 3 this past week here, again I passed. I had John P as my instructor again, and he really helped me get the training, and knowledge to succeed. I'm now thinking about doing my class 1 here as well. I absolutely love this school. Read Less

I choose Capilano truck drinking school because my dad had worked there many years ago and I remember him talking about how he liked the company. So when the time came for me to get my Class 1 I shopped around but in the end choose Capilano because they had the programs I wanted and the instruction time I wanted. Was surprised to find the course was only 2 weeks at the the program I choose (intermediate level). Lessons in truck were 2 hours everyday and all the instructors including the owner were all fantastic and a pleasure to learn from the few that taught me. Everyone was very friendly and very informative. I had never driven a standard in my life but I feel much more comfortable in one now. It was a bit overwhelming at first learning everything and I had a pretty stressful couple of days just because I felt overwhelmed. But each day I went in the intructors worked with me and I gained the confidence I needed to pass my driving test with flying colors. My airbrakes course was taught by the owner of the company and he was great. I was told airbrakes would be a long boring course but Dale made it interesting, he showed us every step several times and we even got to see all the parts broken down and work with them ourselves. This group of guys are all very patient and they make learning fun no matter the class of license you are taking or upgrading too. I highly recommend Capilano Truck Driver Training, for anyone who wants to learn to drive the big rigs and have fun doing it. Read Less

I attended my 1st course ever with you guys on Air Brakes Yesterday. I passed but it wasn't easy. It really tests people and their own potentials. I suggest to keep the cheat sheet for the pre trips and take them with you to your jobsite in the future until you remember it fully 100% and even then don't lose them.

I may have looked rather annoyed because I was there on 3 hours sleep and had a migraine and just wanted to get the hell out of there. LOL. But the training was great I learned a lot! But because this is the longest course and is A LOT for 1 to take in you may or may not want to break it up in to a 2 day course? I'm not sure. Just a thought because I don't know how you guys Operate like everyone who Works for CTDTI does. But think about and do what's best for the Company and Success Rate. But your Reputation is as Advertised Regardless and that's you guys are the Best. After Registering Through John Sturgess I went home and Told my better half of how straight forward, realistic, honest and simply didn't sugar coat anything and how strict he was when it came to the Students Quality of time there and what he is willing to do for us. Just hearing it through me 2nd hand we both had nothing but Pure Respect for the way this company is operating. Definitely keep doing what you're doing and DEFINITELY keep the Staff and look after them. I honestly advise anybody to get their Class 1 training though Capilano Trckers Training. They may save your life and others who are going to be on that road with you. Thanks Guys. I'll see you tomorrow for HOS Training. � Ver mais Read Less

Regret going here. I shopped around and Capilano seemed the best price for class 1 training, but you end up wasting so much time it costs more than it seems. For example, to train parking a trailer, they have all the students train in the same spot so you end up waiting in line for at least half an hour for that. When it's costing you $100/hr. for the training, waiting in line half an hour every time isn't worth it. They waste too much time on the pre-trip inspection training too. In a 2 hour training session, they spend close to an hour on that. My last training session they rated me 2/5 on that, as though I was completely unprepared for a road test, but in the road test I got 100% on the pre-trip. They just make you feel like you're unprepared for the road test so you pay for more hours of training than you really need to. People there are nice and friendly though. Read Less

When seeking truck training in Edmonton and area - I checked out Cameron and Capilano. I chose to go with Capilano and I'm very happy I did. Taking a class one is going to run you more or less 3000 bucks, so you should get to know your instructors before putting any money down if possible. Regardless, every single instructor at capilano is great. I had the opportunity to speak with most of them, requesting different instructors, since everyone has a different opinion and you can learn a lot from these guys. They genuinely wish you to succeed in obtaining your class one, but more than that, they wish for you to be safe, and avoid the common dangers that most trucking schools will only gloss over. Again, if you have no or very little experience with a tractor and trailer, you will want to get more hours under your belt. Better to have more, and need less, than have less and need more - the school is popular and gets booked up quickly! Read Less

When seeking truck training in Edmonton and area - I checked out Cameron and Capilano. I chose to go with Capilano and I'm very happy I did. Taking a class one is going to run you more or less 3000 bucks, so you should get to know your instructors before putting any money down if possible. Regardless, every single instructor at capilano is great. I had the opportunity to speak with most of them, requesting different instructors, since everyone has a different opinion and you can learn a lot from these guys. They genuinely wish you to succeed in obtaining your class one, but more than that, they wish for you to be safe, and avoid the common dangers that most trucking schools will only gloss over. Again, if you have no or very little experience with a tractor and trailer, you will want to get more hours under your belt. Better to have more, and need less, than have less and need more - the school is popular and gets booked up quickly! Read Less
