I was very happy with myself and a lot of hard work, I cannot thank you enough for helping me. I hope you are doing well you gentleman thank you again!! I start my G2 on October 2nd in Halton! All the best I hope to see you soon!

I took the course for 313D last month with Mr. John Spridzans. I just want to let you know that John did an awesome job, and I was able to pass my 313 D exam from first the time. He helped me a lot by answering all my questions. He is very organized and very expert in what he does. Previously I did my G3 and G2 licenses with him and I passed it from first time as well.

I recently completed my G3/G2 course with John and Dusty as my instructors in the Niagara Day class. I would like to relay my appreciation for the work they did in setting me up for the beginnings of my new career.

John was an absolute privilege to be taught by and his passion for passing on knowledge is quite frankly infectious! He goes above and beyond in his teachings and his way of explaining everything makes learning a lot easier.

Dusty is a top bloke and an excellent teacher! His way of transferring what confuses on paper to the real world is fantastic, I truly enjoyed shop with Dusty and he has given me the skills to do it the right way from the beginning. He took difficult electric diagnostic testing and made it much less complicated to understand, had us installing a furnace and instantaneous hot water heater both of which he was able to guide us in how to set them up both correctly and visually correct.

I have to give an honourable nod to Everett, only had him on Monday but he was a great teacher who possesses a great deal of knowledge and experience and was eager to help with any questions anybody had.

I truly enjoyed my time at Niagara Skilled Trades Academy and hopefully be back soon as John would say “See you in 2 years for your G1”

I just wanted to thank John for everything he did to help me get my license! John and Dusty are truly amazing at what they do and I wanted to show my appreciation because I was able to pass because of them both. I received an 87% on my G2 test and also started my new job at Reliance as a Jr Installer. John definitely helped change my life and I wanted to say he is an amazing teacher! You’re the man John!

I’d like to give a huge thank you to the Niagara & Halton Skilled Trades Academy for having me be a part of the awesome G3 & G2 gas tech programs. I am a brain cancer survivor who went to school for welding but after working in the dirty welding environment I decided I needed to change to a new trade that wouldn’t risk my health. I needed a few accommodations for my TSSA exams due to this and they were able to help me get these from the TSSA. I thought about going back to school but decided to give the Niagara Skilled Trades Academy a try because I could fast-track my schooling. I am happy I chose them, worth the money. I thank all the staff for working hard and prepping us for all of our tests. They really took the time to help us. An extra thank you goes out to Dustin and John S – they are great teachers. I will miss the Niagara Skilled Trades Academy but am really looking forward to getting started in my new trade.

This is an amazing chance for young people as well as older people to get ahead in their careers in skilled trades!!! There is a huge lack of people to fill the shoes of these workers that are or have retired over the past few years, (me being one of them, with over 35 years in industrial and commercial HVAC and controls). These courses are perfect to get your foot in the door and learn a skilled trade, as well as earning an amazing wage at the same time !!! You won’t regret it at all !!! And NO, they didn’t ask or pay me to say this to you at all !!! I just want others to have the same great chance at a career that they will love, just like I did!!!

I just wanted to thank you for all the help you have given me over the past 17 weeks in preparing me for my G3 and G2 exam. I am very appreciative of your efforts to go above and beyond to help me achieve all my certifications, including ODP.

I enjoyed the course very much and learned a lot from John, Dusty and Everette. It was one of the best-in-class experiences I’ve had at a school in a very long time. Your preparation for the G2 exam was extremely helpful and I believe I did very well on that examination. Obviously, I will have to wait for my mark to come in but I am confident that I passed because of all the work I put in.

It’s been a pleasure to have you as an instructor! Thank you again for all your help and hopefully, I will be seeing you around soon.
