Tri-County was an awesome experience. The whole staff is welcoming and friendly. The instructors are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about your success as a driver. The people there treat you like family and go out of their way to meet your scheduling needs. Would recommend this school to anyone wanting to get their AZ/DZ and fork lift training. Well done Tri-County, you do the little things that matter. Read Less

I just completed my AZ course at Tri-County Training. It was an overall fantastic experience, from the kind, friendly and welcoming women working in the office. The thorough and passionate in-class and air brake education from John. The experienced and exeptional in-truck instructor Greg. If you’re considering training schools, I highly recommend coming here! They’re not just training you to pass the road test, everyone is there to bring you to a professional level driver who confidently knows what they are doing on the road or looking for during inspections.

What an amazing experience! Not only is Tri-County one of the last schools that offer training on a standard transmission, but they go above and beyond in identifying a student’s learning style on an individual level. I want to start with John, the in-class instructor, who not only knows his material extremely well, but the passion he puts into it and seeing his students succeed, makes going to class something you look forward to everyday (and I was never big on classes). Then of course there’s Blake, my in-truck/driving instructor. Again, not only was Blake extremely knowledgeable at what he does, but he did beyond the best job I could have asked for training and getting me comfortable with a loaded tractor, trailer and shifting gears. He constantly made sure I felt safe and comfortable with what I was doing, and pushed me to further my skills to the next level. Amazing job Blake, and thank you for making it fun along the way! Lastly, I have to mention the way that the owner, Leif, and the wonder office ladies, Pam and Marie, always having such a welcoming and smiling face everyday, and the other instructors, Jeff, Carl, Jane and Brian, all jump in to help out in any way they can. What an amazing team and experience, was hired on with a great company the day I got my licence. Thank you Blake and Tri-County! Read Less

Very positive and helpful experience while training to obtain my BZ license. All instructors, including John and Paul, are very knowledgeable and always willing to help. John broke down all material in a way that was easy to understand and retain. He always made sure everyone understood all concepts, and had no hesitation to take extra time to help those who didn’t. The class environment was always friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend John and Tri-County as your go-to for accurate and efficient training, for any class of license. Read Less

Words can not describe how thankful I am for this company. I first went to a driving school for my B License and was not treated like was a student, I was treated as a dollar sign. However, John Dinning was my instructor at Tri County, the level of professionalism and how he taught our class was beyond expectations. 11 of us went for our B license, ALL 11 PASSED. If you're looking to get your commercial drivers license, Look no further because this school is amazing, ( Props to the owner for hiring an awesome instructor) Read Less

I loved it even though it was a steep learning curve. The class sessions seem long by 4:30 or 5 pm but all the info is well covered by the instructor. I passed with 90% and was able to be employed quickly afterward. The fork lift driver day course was .... well, ....I had issues with my treatment compared with my co classmate that day. I did finish and I did pass without question. My first time driving it and gently bumping a rack (while he was chatting to my classmate and NOT watching me) he asked/stated "Why did you do that?" and then waited for me to come up with an answer. His attitude of there being only two reasons to make an error were unrealistic, distressing and offensive to me. An error happens a) because you weren't paying attention or b) You did it on purpose. This leaves no room for ANY learning curve. Please do not allow him to do that to you. I felt diminished. Office staff are wonderful, trainers are great but each has a different teaching method and techniques. It may be more effective to switch out trainers and new drivers over the course. More backing time is needed (for me, anyway) and for second career choice, with the grants for retraining Canadians it is worth it. They are personable, the students seemed to mix readily, though there is very little time, or reason in the classroom to relate your personal experiences. I was comfortable there and passed my first drive test with MTO and at my choice of employers. I am not it love with the idea that you have a 3 hour practical driving lesson booked, and then realize on your first time out that you are actually committed to be in the truck with another student for 6 hours. (I never did end up in the 3 students =9 hours on the road, thank goodness, and I hope they are not are not doing that now). GREAT COMPANY that takes producing WELL trained drivers seriously. PS: There were 4 women in my class of approximately 15 people, and all ages. It was a first for them but I'm sure, it's happening more. Read Less
