We have many Canadian members here.
If you don't get a response, I'd think it's because no one is familiar with the particular school.
Give our members some time, though, and they may find some reviews in their other forums.

From what I see on the website, it looks like it's a very good school. They seem to have a lot of industry contacts for job placement too.

I live about an hour from Toronto and have heard of this school, but do not have any first hand knowledge of them. A friends son is enrolled in another private welding school in Toronto and he said the tuition is around $11,000.00. He has been there since September and is just now starting to get a bit of theory. I know you can't learn to weld in a classroom, but sometimes they don't do enough. If ll you want to do is run beads, then booth learning might work. I thing young guys need a lot more theory so that they know what they are doing and why. It also opens more doors in the welding profession down the road.
He also said they only run 7018 and focus on CWB (Structural) welding. I would think there is more money to be made in pressure pipe welding around here. I'm trying to push him towards learning to run 6010 as well. He is only 19 years old, so there is no rush.
Good luck and I'll try to see what I can find out.
