Self Improvement
I used Tri-Shield to upgrade some of my knowledge that I couldn't get within my company. Patrick Martin & his team was very helpful in helping me achieve that, but also qualified me, & what would best suit my career in transportation. Now I use this information daily, Thanks Tri-Shield
Kevin Bradshaw - Professional CMV Driver
Commercial Vehicle Safety Training
“As part of one of our bi-annual full day safety meetings we had Tri-Shield come out for half a day and do a session on truck safety with all of our staff. They covered everything we were hoping for and more. All questions were answered and everyone had nothing but positive things to say about the session. With so many questions about all the different regulations we feel our staff is now better equipped to hit the road prepared and safe! A big thanks to Pat and Alan! We will definitely have them back!”

Practical Roadside Inspection Course
I have utilized Tri-Shield for the last two years to conduct yearly training for my company. My staff found the Roadside Awareness Course very useful, and Scott, Al and Pat made them comfortable and willing to engage with the training. The knowledge my staff have learned from these courses has helped me as an owner to ensure that when my staff take a vehicle on the road, they are operating it safely.
It was also during the first course that I realized some of my vehicles
may need to be reregistered due to the weight they were carrying.
As Tri-Shield owns a set of portable scales they were able to provide me with the exact weight so I could ensure they were registered properly and that my staff had the correct licence to operate the vehicles.
As the I have found the training so beneficial for the staff, I will be having Tri-Shield back again this year.
