“PTC was a great experience ! My instructor Simar was super friendly and made everyday enjoyable. With her help I was able to obtain certificates and skills to set me up for success in my new education journey.
Thank you!”
“The faculty members are exceptionally supportive and amicable, providing invaluable assistance throughout my academic journey. I have the utmost confidence in the competence of the staff and firmly believe that my experience at PTC will be transformative.”
“It is extremely difficult to transition in your life after a traumatic injury, especially when you are older as I am. I could never express in words how much I have appreciated the patience, understanding, empathy, and kindness that my instructor Saysha has shown me. I am forever grateful to her. I would also like to thank the other instructors and the manager for listening and addressing any of my concerns. I am going to miss them very much as I transition to my next journey in life. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience studying at PTC Progressive Training College of Business and Health – Vaughan Campus. My instructor, Arsam, was outstanding! He’s very knowledgeable, patient, and always made learning enjoyable and easy to understand. Arsam truly cares about his students’ success and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels supported. Thanks to him, I’ve gained valuable skills and confidence in my studies. I highly recommend PTC Vaughan Campus and especially Arsam for anyone looking for a quality education and a positive learning experience!”
“Due to unseen circumstances, I had to go back to school. Going back to school as an older adult was intimidating. I was nervous and unsure if I could succeed in a classroom setting again.
From the moment I enrolled, the staff at this college went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and supported. My life at the time was filled with medical appointments and other obligations, and they were incredibly accommodating.
Thanks to the encouragement and dedication of my instructors, Shahzad and Polina, and the support of the entire team. I was able to overcome my doubts and found success. I'm truly grateful for the opportunity and support I received here.”
“PTC has smaller class sizes which offer more one-on-one assistance. The instructors and other staff are very knowledgeable and approachable. Always friendly, willing to help, and recognize and appreciate a student’s hard work ethic. My course did not come with a placement or co-op, but PTC is very flexible as they can help you with setting up volunteer work for yourself to complete outside of class schedules to help you gain field experience. In my case, I had no leadership or management experience, so my instructor came up with the idea of having me act as teaching assistant for some of the courses I have already completed and excelled at and had this idea approved by the College. This help me gain the leadership skills I need to take to a managerial role and grow my resume. I am glad I chose PTC as it was the best academic decision I have ever made!”
“Sarah, you’re the rock star hands down. Or would it be hands up 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻Lol. Either way, thank you so much for keeping everything positive and working with me. I can’t tell you how much I truly appreciate everything you are and how helpful you have been. I feel so grateful to have had you in my corner. The last 5 months have been pretty Helter skelter over here with everything going on in are world these days . Thank you for being such a positive person in my life during these times, I couldn’t have done it without you.
Wow at 42 I would have never guessed I’d go back to school; man life is amazing eh!

Thank you so much Sarah!”
“What an amazing opportunity it was attending and graduating from Progressive Training College! I began my program Human Resources, Business Management & Business Administration in April of 2018. I had looked into a few other colleges and it scared me to think about being lost in a classroom full of students. At Progressive Training College, it was small classrooms with your instructor and you had the support of all staff. I hadn’t been in school for 19 years, and the thought about the homework and lectures on subjects I had never done in school was frightening, yet exciting all at the same time. I set a goal to achieve honours at the end of my program. I am not going to lie, it was not just a breeze in the park, it was dedication, determination, communication and support that help me through my program. I even had a few moments where I thought “WOW should I even be doing this, should I really be in this program”? My instructors listened to my fears, to my concerns and self doubt and they helped me to focus on my strengths and draw from them, and they helped to build my confidence and encourage me to believe in myself as they all believed in me. Help was available at all times and the support was absolutely incredible! I graduated my program with honours! I am currently working full-time in a field related to my program and I feel on top of the world! I am very thankful for opportunity to attended such a supportive college with amazing staff! Thank-you Progressive Training College for building the confidence and educating me with the skills to achieve my goals!”
“Without Progressive Training College’s supportive, and kind approach to teaching, I do not believe I would have been able to integrate back into school as successfully as I did. With all the care and guidance that I had received from my teacher Sarah, I was able to attain my Microsoft Office Specialist Certificates in WORD, EXCEL, and ACCESS. Even after graduating from my program I find myself missing the understanding and empathy I received when in their care. Thank you so much PTC, you helped me regain confidence in myself again and provided me with a supportive environment that I needed to PROPERLY get the skillset I needed to succeed in my career. Thank you!”
“I definitely recommend people to take this course. The classes are small which there's more one on one if u have difficulty in school like I do. They make it fun while learning, I also like how they do all class room book work first and then placement. I always struggled in school and when I took this course I was a little terrified because I wanted to succeed in life and go somewhere. When I took this course I enjoyed every minute of it and I even passed with honours. I know if I took this course at Sault College I know I would have never passed. Over all I recommend PTC and I loved being there.”
“Very helpful staff. They answered all my questions. Great leadership skills. I went back to learning at the age of 57. All the staff helped me succeed and now I am a security gaurd/law enforcement. PTC really did an excellent job at teaching me the skills and answering any questions or concerns that I had. Thank you to all the staff at PTC Vaughan.”
“My teacher was fantastic and really helped me achieve and accomplish everything I wanted to. I was worried about countless things at the beginning of the course but with help from my teacher and others I was able to make it through my course with the best grades I have ever had in my life. I truly believe that my teacher was the force behind getting me to back into learning at an age where It is sometimes hard to.”
“I enrolled in a six week computer program at PTC because I wasn’t the most tech savvy person. Within the six weeks I became very confident in using my newly acquired computer skills. I’ve been fortunate enough to receive the opportunity to learn from my instructor on a very practical level and ratio. I was able to receive one on one instruction which I found to be very helpful and effective in the learning process.”
