KnowledgeSurge Institute Trucking School

Fantastic experience: Graet staff and teachers with a great program

Fantastic experience: The team at KnowledgeSurge is great, from the administrative staff to the instructors. They helped me through every step from class to test and they were very accommodating, I did have a bit of a ruff patch with my lessons but they took the time to help work it out and got me ready for my test Thanks again KnowledgeSurge team

Positive experience: Attended Knowledge Surge to get my DZ license, through their MELT class. DZ Course was 1 week in class for D related training, 2 days for Airbrakes with your endorsement test at the end of day 2. Then 3 intruck lessons (12hrs total). Personally I paid myself to go here and I would say I am happy with my choice, with that being said some students you are in class with may not take it as serious as you'd like but that's on them. Their job most likely paid for them to attend, so just ignore them the best you can and stay focused. The Teachers are where this place shines, They truly care about the trucking industry and want you to succeed. If you are struggling to understand something they will offer to stay after-hours or arrive early to help you 1on1 until you get it. Where they lost a star for me is because of the office staff. When I originally called to price out schools I was told the price after tax ... apparently, then once I was in class and got the invoice it was a fair bit more than I was originally quoted over the phone. (Go talk to them in person, don't call). My next issue is having the classes start at the same time the Office staff start their shift. Almost every morning you're there before any of the office staff, so If you have a question or need to sort something out with them you have to wait until later in the day because they won't be there before class starts. They advertise simulators but you only get to use them if the class size is small and you all move through the in class units quickly, so I never got to use one. All in all, it's a good place to learn trucking. Alot of hands on training and knowledgeable teachers that are personable. I'd recommend people go here if they are serious about getting into commercial driving.

Fantastic experience: A good school with great instructors that will show you the way.

Fantastic experience: I don’t really know where to start. I'am just going to say that my whole experience at Knowledge Surge has been one I will never forget. It has been quite an exciting journey. The AZ course it’s an excellent course here. All the instructors are very knowledgable and very helpful with years of experience. These guys are a bunch of great guys. The staff are all friendly and very accommodating. Thank you Rhiannon and Chelsey. There were a couple of times I really felt like quitting, but these guys encouraged me and push me to continue and keep trying. They believed in me, from Clay allowing me to figure things out and make my own call to John giving me hope that “ it’s ok some guys just get it after the 8th or 10th time “…. LOL.. Good times!!! The really young guy John ;) taught me some valuable maneuvers for backing . Dave is a great instructor and we all learned a great deal from him. All I can say is that If you are thinking about getting your AZ or DZ license this is definitely a place to really consider. I have learned a lot and feel really confident moving forward after all the knowledge I’ve gained here. Thank you
