    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.

    Currently taking my online AZ training with trainer Shawn White, and he has been one of the best teachers I’ve had! The man is extremely knowledgeable and personable which makes learning from him pleasant and easy. I have a hard time learning online, I much prefer in-class, but his zoom class has been useful, and he is able to explain... see more things multiple different ways to help someone understand, which helps someone like me who usually needs audio and visuals of what I’m learning. Some of the material being covered is dry material but he makes learning this stuff engaging and gives amazing examples. He is also going more in depth than just what’s in the book which is great, giving us some real life experiences and knowledge. He obviously is an excellent trainer and very well respected, and for good reason. Very happy to have him for my in-class learning. I’m hoping that my practical trainer carries the same drive and want to teach as Shawn does. He absolutely does his best, cares, and wants to make sure that his students fully understand the material and wants us to be the best that we can possibly be. Looking forward to the second week of in-class!

  • Excelent teacher Shawn ..was great and professional

    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.

    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!

    Graydon Knapp Avatar Graydon K.

    I am talking the Z endorsement course with Shawn White as my instructor right now. He was extremely knowledgeable and made sure each student was fully prepared the course and did not rush through any aspect. He also answers and explain every single question. if any one like to take course Highly recommend you to take course with Shawn white if... see more you are taking the course at TTCC Cambridge campus! You will get enough knowledge. Thanks again!!

    Efrem Tesfamariam Avatar Efrem T.

    I attended the Z endorsement course Feb 15-16 in Cambridge. The instructor Shawn White was Right On. A lot of years of driving experience. Knowledgeable. I learned a lot. And when my confidence in myself dropped he was encouraging. I passed both of my tests because I had a good instructor. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
