Excellent instructors and staff, I went to the school while it was owned by Dale/Barb and under the new owners as well. The quality has stayed the same, at the top.The instructors and staff genuinely care about their students. Although if you are young (under 21) have zero experience and zero connections don't expect the same treatment from the Alberta Government and 99.5% of all transportation companies, even after getting your Class 1 MELT license.

I did my air brakes yesterday, and these guys are really great. My class instructor was John P he made it fun, and not boring. Then I was tested by Jeff H, another great instructor. They really really know their stuff, I highly recommend coming here for the course. 😁👍 I just did my class 3 this past week here, again I passed. I had John P as my instructor again, and he really helped me get the training, and knowledge to succeed. I'm now thinking about doing my class 1 here as well. I absolutely love this school.

Fantastic experience. Everyone was really friendly and willing to help. My instructor was Bill. He was calm and explained things very clearly. It was my first time driving a tractor and trailer, but Bill taught things very well and built confidence in me so i was calm and ready for the road. I have no regrets, and would highly recommend Capilano to anyone interested in learning class 1. Big thanks to Bill, and all the staff at Capilano. I really appreciate all the help. Kyle w

I choose Capilano truck drinking school because my dad had worked there many years ago and I remember him talking about how he liked the company. So when the time came for me to get my Class 1 I shopped around but in the end choose Capilano because they had the programs I wanted and the instruction time I wanted. Was surprised to find the course was only 2 weeks at the the program I choose (intermediate level). Lessons in truck were 2 hours everyday and all the instructors including the owner were all fantastic and a pleasure to learn from the few that taught me. Everyone was very friendly and very informative. I had never driven a standard in my life but I feel much more comfortable in one now. It was a bit overwhelming at first learning everything and I had a pretty stressful couple of days just because I felt overwhelmed. But each day I went in the intructors worked with me and I gained the confidence I needed to pass my driving test with flying colors. My airbrakes course was taught by the owner of the company and he was great. I was told airbrakes would be a long boring course but Dale made it interesting, he showed us every step several times and we even got to see all the parts broken down and work with them ourselves. This group of guys are all very patient and they make learning fun no matter the class of license you are taking or upgrading too. I highly recommend Capilano Truck Driver Training, for anyone who wants to learn to drive the big rigs and have fun doing it.

At 1st I woulda recommended this driving school to absolutely anyone that wanted to become a professional driver... now I wouldn’t recommend this school to my worst enemy. I had to go back to school & get my class 1 back so I did the E&E & I was one of the 1st 2 people in all of Alberta to do this program. The instructor that taught this class was absolutely fantastic & knew it right to the point. He was vary professional & went beyond any expectations that could be asked of one. However as class went on.. this instructor was up for a job promotion, there for one of the other senior instructor’s felt the need to cause some hardship that then caused issue’s with the completion of the course. This went on for quit some time & Alberta Commercial Transportation got involved.. meanwhile this was happening not only did the senior instructor not give a darn who he was effecting or the hardship he was causing.. as well it seemed like the new owner didn’t & till this vary day dosent care a bit. However by this person’s actions I lost out on the job that I was wanting to get back into.. so that costed me $75,000.00 more a year. The manager from the get while this was all happening.. ( was absolutely acting on my side, saying this is gonna get resolved & this & that.. for weeks & weeks... & weeks.. & stated from the get go I would get refunded my monies back minimum & that was confident that the person that caused this wouldn’t have a job & be before commercial transport to have the teaching license pulled & this & that.. I received texts messages every other day ... saying this was gonna be dealt with & I would be given a meeting date to receive my monies ) Nothing yet has come of anything.. Prior to all this I recommended this place to 4 of my vary good friends, & a couple of them been getting the run around too!! I would not recommend this place at all no more
