I recently completed training in the DZ Standard program at the Cambridge campus in March 2025. I wanted to ensure that my training was going to be at a very high standard as this would be the foundation of a new career for me. I met with the lead instructor Shawn White prior to taking the course and... see more after our meeting and discussion I came away feeling very strong that he would be an excellent trainer. I could not have been more correct with my assessment of Shawn. I found Shawn not only to be an excellent trainer but also someone who genuinely cares about the success of his students. The training is very intense with a lot of skills and information to be covered during limited time of training. I found one of Shawn's greatest strengths was his ability to analyze my strengths and weaknesses and how to prioritize my training needs so that I could get the most out of the program and my time with him. After the training was completed I passed the road test on my first attempt and the driver examiner told me I was excellent on every part of the test. I cannot speak highly enough about Shawn as he is a very knowledgeable, experienced trainer and his attention to detail is second to none. As well he gave me training on top of my scheduled time on his own personal time. It was Shawn's high level of training that got me more than ready and confident for the road test. He is not only a great trainer but a great person as well which made the training a very enjoyable experience. Transport Training Centres of Canada is very fortunate to have Shawn White as an instructor and I strongly feel he is invaluable. Scott D.
Shaun White, absolutely awesome instructor that not only does a great job at teaching, but he has heart to teach to his students to the highest standard of new drivers in North America. I wish he was also my driving instructor but he is there online for me and goes in depth to anything. There are no stupid questions.
Shawn had a personal issue happening during our training yet did not let that affect his training..made the course fun but also added personal experiences which I found easier to relate to..learned so much yet kept us interested during a long somewhat boring course..also when I mentioned that the course narrator sounded like Hank Hill he found it amusing..#1 in... see more my books
Shawn is an amazing instructor. Just completed my DZ and can’t wait to start driving.

Keep up the great work see you down the road sir!!!
Had Jeff from North Bay as my instructor and he is awesome!
Shawn was extremely informative and helpful with many real life experiences and taking the time to explain everything in great detail
I recently had the pleasure of taking the AZ and Air Brakes course with Shawn, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, Shawn demonstrated what it truly means to be an exceptional instructor. What stood out the most was Shawn’s ability to break down complex concepts into clear, easy-to-understand steps. The material can feel overwhelming at first,... see more but Shawn’s detailed explanations and structured teaching style made everything feel manageable. He didn’t just provide the “what” but also the “why” behind every concept, ensuring we understood how it applied to real-world scenarios. One of Shawn’s greatest strengths is his patience. Mistakes were never met with frustration or dismissal but rather as opportunities for learning. He encouraged us to ask questions, no matter how small or repetitive, and would revisit topics until we were confident in our understanding. His ability to reexplain concepts in different ways was incredible and showed how much he cared about his students’ success. Shawn also created a supportive and encouraging learning environment. He ensured everyone felt comfortable, regardless of their starting skill level. He constantly checked in with us individually to make sure we weren’t falling behind and always provided constructive feedback. His corrections were clear, respectful, and focused on improvement, which made a world of difference in building our confidence. When it came to the practical portion of the course, Shawn’s attention to detail was second to none. He thoroughly walked us through every aspect of the air brake system and the proper procedures for inspections and operation. He emphasized safety and accuracy, helping us develop habits that will stick with us throughout our careers. Overall, Shawn’s teaching was the perfect combination of expertise, patience, and encouragement. He made what could have been an intimidating course both enjoyable and educational. If you’re considering taking the AZ and Air Brakes course, I can’t recommend Shawn enough. You’ll walk away not only with the knowledge and skills you need but also the confidence to apply them effectively. Thank you, Shawn, for going above and beyond to ensure your students succeed. You’re truly an exceptional instructor! Oh and another…. A huge thank you, Shawn, for all your guidance and support in helping me pass my AZ and Air Brakes test today—I DEFINITELY passed! Your patience, detailed explanations, and encouragement made all the difference. I couldn’t have done it without you! Sincerely Christine!!!
Shawn was an excellent instructor, going abive and beyond the course curriculum.
I had the pleasure of having Shawn as our Truck Driver Trainer at TTCC, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From day one, Shawn brought such positive energy to the class and took the time to explain everything in detail, not just from the book, but through the lens of his 30+ years of experience in... see more the industry. What really stood out was his ability to connect with us on a personal level. He didn’t just teach—he made sure we truly understood the material and the "why" behind what we were learning. Even with over 51 students at one point, he managed to make each of us feel seen and supported. That’s no small feat. If I ever decide to go for my AZ license, I really hope I get Shawn again as my instructor. Thanks for an amazing and unforgettable week in class!
Rees taught me everything I needed to know to pass my AZ license test. I passed on the first attempt without any issues because of Rees’ guidance.
The TTCC team did everything they can for me to earn my DZ licence. Rees my driver instructor went over and beyond to train me and got me ready for the road test. On the road test day I passed my DZ driver’s licence road test from the first try! Special thanks to Hilary, Alicia, and Rees for making my... see more dream of obtaining a DZ licence a reality! I highly recommend Transport Training Centres of Canada (TTCC).
Great place to get your truck licenses, Shawn is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond making sure you are well educated for when you start driving.
I'm currently in the AZ MELT program and it's been a great experience so far. Shawn White, our instructor, brings 30 years of experience to the table, and it really shows.
