TTCC was an amazing driving school. Because of Covid it took longer then it should have to complete my training but that was out of my control. I have never driven on a manual transmission before joining TTCC... with that being said i got my AZ license with ease thanks to the amazing trainers.. both of my trainers had 20+... see more years of experience which is what i was looking for. It is a very serious driving school and they make sure you can excel to the best of your abilities. The HR clerk at the Hamilton campus cares about you just as much as the trainers and will help you with ANYTHING you need to progress in your training and or career. if you've never driven manual before like i did and are scared to make the jump in learning i assure you this school will make the best driver out of you. thanks again for everything TTCC.
The Hamilton campus was an excellent experience. I learned so much with TTCC at the Hamilton campus. The learning environment and knowledge that was taught here was above and beyond what a student could ask for. So welcoming and rewarding, the staff (JACQUIE) and teachers (BRENT + others) made this all possible. Worth it so much to attend this school. Thanks to TTCC Hamilton... see more campus, I now have my ACZ license.
Kevin did 19 out of the 20 classes I did and he is an incredible instructor very on point with every instruction and helping you understand! Very easy to get on with and is willing to go the extra mile to help you in your classes!
Had a wonderful experience training for my DZ license at TTCC's Hamilton campus. My instructor, Andrew, from TTCC London, was a very knowledgeable, patient trainer, with a great sense of humour (Bonus!). Jacquie, their office manager, was always very helpful. Well worth every penny!I I'd recommend them anytime. Brian Sutherland
Had a great experience at this school. They made it very easy and fun to learn. The trainers were very personal and nice! Coordinator was great, super helpful. Highly recommend this school.
I want to start off by thanking the ttcc staff Jackie is great she makes sure ur days are planned and always have time for the students.. Brent great trainer I was unsure if I even wanted to get my Az but wit motivation n great support he helped me understand n learn everything I needed and more so I... see more could pass my az road test the environment in the school is amazing the students all work together to better n push each other tyvm TTC Hamilton I will highly recommend this school to all as u get the pass form the staff....
A couple months ago I had never driven a manual transmission or anything bigger than a pickup truck. Now thanks to Jacquie and my trainer Brent I have an A-Z license. I encourage anyone looking to get their A-Z license to consider TTCC Hamilton.
Edit/ Update 4/8/22: I was accepted this week into the NABET 700-M UNIFOR Transport department as a permit. I took the course at TTCC to further my career in the television and fIlm industry. WIth Jacquie and Brent's attentive help with course. I now have the position I wanted and achieved one of my life goals. Thank you so... see more much!!! The team at Hamilton TTCC was amazing. Definitely a great course to take your AZ, and DZ license training. Original review: Jaquie in the office and Brent the resident practical /driving instructor did everything possible to help attain my z endorsement and d class (manual shifting) license - which I was successful on the first attempts. The in class portion was very detailed and informative. There's an excellent driving simulator you can use at an unlimited capacity at the campus which I used often to practice manual shifting when not in the actual truck. - great value there The airbreak (z) endorsement they have efficiently broken down into simplified concise steps I found was very effective to help with memorization. I found other students were always more than happy and willing to help / partner up with for studying and encouragement. Above all it was a very positive learning environment. I very much had fun learning, coming to school, and definitely appreciated the people there. Thank you so much!
After my first week of attending TTCC Hamilton (zoom class), I felt that this career was not for me until I had spoken to Jacquie (campus coordinator) and Melissa (admissions specialist) and they both convinced me that I should not give up on the course. After going back and forth, I had come to a conclusion that I would leave the... see more course. About a week later I decided I would return to the school to start my course again. After speaking with Jacquie many times, she believed in me and my abilities. She never gave up on me and she knew I could do it! I had started my truck training with my instructor, Brent. I told him I was a slow learner and I never drove a manual before. He totally understood. He also took the time to go over things with me many times, he was very patient and had a great sense of humour. By using the simulator it helps you understand how the truck operates. It really helped me out with shifting. I can’t say enough about this school. I love how the students work together. I highly recommend this school for anyone who is looking to obtain there AZ license. I was able to pass my road test in no time! Sending out a special thanks to my campus coordinator Jacquie, and my instructor, Brent. I’m so excited to start my new career! “The harder you work for something, the greater you’ll feel when you achieve it.”
Chris and Rachael are the best very professional and always willing to accommodating.
I went to hamilton for truck training. Jackie was so helpful and accommodating. Thank you so much jackie. While attending i had a few different instructors. Sam from sudbury, excellent instructor and very funny. Rob from st. Catherines who is amazing at helping you retain all the information you need. Chris from Cambridge, super funny and made learning lots for fun.... see more Brent from hamilton is very knowledgeable. I also did my heavy equipment training, half in Cambridge with alex who was great to train with, and the other half in st cathrines with George. George was great to train with. He has over 40 years in the field and is so helpful and knowledgeable. All and all great experience from TTCC
Trained at the Hamilton campus for my license! Jacquie, the campus manager is awesome, knowledgeable, and super helpful. Brent and Brendon were friendly, patient, and taught me everything I needed to successfully pass all my tests. Big thanks to the TTCC Hamilton family!!! You guys are great!!!
Great place to learn and great staff. Jacquie and Brent made this a breeze :)
I want thank Hamilton campus, jacquie, wilson, and her cohorts chloe and brendan bell from st kitts in passing my ACZ test, woooo hooooo Im a trucker
Had a great experience taking the platinum course at TTCC hamilton. Jacquie the campus coordinator was always pleasant to speak with and greeted you with a smile from the door. Brent and kyle from hamilton and Rob from Saint Catherine were my A-Z truck instructors. They insured that I understood all the material that was being thought and answered any... see more questions that I may have had. It was great to have 3 different teaching styles all geared towards helping you to succeed. Alex in Cambridge was my heavy equipment instructor. Great guy always showed up on time even showed up when there was a full fledged blizzard active to ensure I was able to finish my last class. I appreciate the hamilton family and I would highly recommend this course.
I cannot recommend this school enough! From the start of class with Chris, who taught and shared his many experiences with us, he was an encouraging and engaging teacher. Jackie, who handled the administrative work and was my first contact, made the transition into the learning environment smooth with her warm, passionate, welcoming personality. Finally, Brent, who did my in-truck... see more training, I couldn’t have asked for anyone more experienced or better; he supported me through challenges in a very supportive way, he made the learning experience enjoyable and engaged me the entire time; he also helped build the passion for starting my truck driving career. This team is the BEST, and I am grateful I had them throughout the process!! Thank you, Treon
I had the best experience with this school, starting with their head office. They worked around my schedule as I had a full time job and it worked out perfectly. Jackie who was in charge of the Hamilton campus was so professional and helpful and gives the warmest welcome with a huge smile as soon as you step foot... see more on site. We did the virtual class portion of the program first and Instructor Rob was amazing, easy going and made sure that I understood everything he was saying-this makes a huge difference when English is not your first language! We then transitioned into driving where I met my instructor SHAWN WHITE - Stay away from him he's crazy! (Just kidding) but that's what I thought of him when he put me on a tractor trailer the first day and got me to drive on the road as his goal was to remove that fear we all first came with. I was so nervous and scared but his words to me from day 1 were, '' you are a professional driver.'' Shawn's positivity and motivation goes above and beyond! He had a lot of patience but pushed your limits and gave you 10000%. One day he came back to the school from another student's driving test, which he had aced (as all Shawn's students do) .....He was happier than the student himself ! He absolutely loves seeing his students succeed and that's when I knew I was in good hands. He treats you like family and I will forever be grateful. I cannot stress enough how worth it this school and the instructors are as I am now proud AZ license holder thanks to them. To Shawn: no matter how professional I get- I'll always be the student. I really could not have done it without you! So thank you and hats of to you and the other instructors at TTCC. To the new students reading the reviews- just do it! this is the perfect place to start your new career.
The practical training I received was very organized and confidence boosting. Bruce Agar was very knowledgeable & made sure I received the proper education.
