I just completed the Class 1 MELT program at the Vernon location, the Vernon team made it a great experience.
I had Matthew Dutchak as an instructor for the theory and driving portions of the course. He was knowledgeable and patient, great at giving examples and breaking things down whenever required. Matt made things easy to digest and apply while driving.
Matt and Robbie Williams were keen to provide industry insights at every opportunity. They made sure to emphasize safe practices and gave great examples to reinforce their importance.
Cindy Helfrich was incredibly helpful with coordinating scheduling and ensuring deadlines were met along the way.
I appreciate everything they did for me. Read Less

The training team at Taylor Pro in Kelowna are absolutely top-notch. I recommend them to anyone looking to complete the MELT program successfully. I had Leroy at the start teaching me the basics of the pre trip inspection and how to get through the outskirts and then into downtown Kelowna and then John for the last couple weeks smoothing out the rough edges (and there were many)š
Lou was great in the classroom as well and Rhea and Amber in the office were essential support as well. Thanks again Taylor Pro team!! Read Less

Taylor Pro is challenging some of the preconceptions of drivers education by doing things not just right, but exceptional.
Many schools teach on old trucks that on their last legs of life, or with instructors that are past their prime and are there for the paycheck.
Not so at this place
Taylor Pro uses modern trucks and from what I learned in my time there, buys and sells frequently to keep their fleet modern, relevant and in fantastic repair.
The people are what set this place apart.
Your first calls you'll conversation with Rhea. Powerful force to be reckoned with that brings energ and enthusiasm, the embodiment of strong women in the workforce.
John was my primary instructor with years of experience. He makes the learning curve relatable, sometimes straightforward observations, often more subtle suggestions.
I also had the opportunity to drive and learn from Ben and Leroy. Both have years of driving and teaching, patience and awareness. Ben brings energy and enthusiasm, along with a multitude of teaching techniques to learning curve to make it relatable.
At Taylor Pro, they're not teaching you to pass an ICBC road test. You're learning to drive as a safe, competent operator in real life. That philosophy translates to real world success. Read Less

WOW! I actually did it! I took the PREMIUM Class 1 driving program and I just graduated Oct 13/17! If you want to be challenged and really learn from some skilled instructors, then TAYLOR PRO TRAINING is for you. I do wish these smaller companies had the funding to upgrade their equipment but it is what it is. Overall I would do the course all over again but maybe within a shorter time frame rather than the set 12 weeks. Grateful to ALL the members of my team and the instructors who taught me the skills necessary for me to graduate and become a Professional Driver. Special thanks to Karla, the gal behind the desk who does all the scheduling etc. You ROCK GIRL!!! Sincerely, Karin Siemens Read Less
