As you may or may not know, as of August 2016, Foundation Career College has changed its name to Transport Training Centres of Canada Ltd.

This signifies a major change not only in the branding of the company but also in the way the location will operate going forward.

Foundation Career College had typically been run as its own separate entity but with the campus now under the TTCC banner, changes have been made to ensure Transport Training Centres of Canada’s standard of top-notch training will be implemented in Dartmouth, NS.

The changes begin with the introduction of a state-of-the-art Virage Truck Driving Simulator.

The on-site simulator includes real truck parts and full simulation of virtually any type of heavy vehicle from dump trucks to highway tractor-trailer and semi-trailer applications. The unit also includes 3D sound and high fidelity visual scenes with a virtual 360 degree view from the driver’s seat (180 degree forward field of view and rear-view mirrors) using the latest LCD high resolution display technology.

We have seen this simulator training vastly improve the quality of drivers that we produce, as students get added time backing, shifting and more. The additional skill development has greatly improved our students’ confidence and knowledge.

The unlimited simulator training is available for all students (former and current) and demos are available at the campus for those interested.

The change to TTCC also means that we are going to be more involved with companies, as TTCC has done successfully for many years. We are taking a hands-on approach with job placements and internships and have developed systems to ensure students have the greatest chance of success in the workforce. We are very excited to work hand in hand with employers to ensure our graduates exceed employer expectations and to ensure that any concerns over previous experiences with Foundation Career College are those of the past.
