I went for DZ training and had very little confidence in myself and was extremely nervous because it was a new to me. The office staff was very friendly … More and inviting and my trainers Dave, John and Jim were friendly, patient, encouraging, helped build my confidence and taught me a lot. The other trainer that brought the truck for my test was just as friendly and encouraging. It was a pleasure to meet everyone there. They all made it feel like we've none eachother for years which helped calm my nerves and I past all my tests with flying colours. Thank you to the team you do a great job, I'll miss you all.

If you have no experience in driving transport and wanting to get in the trucking industry. I’d recommend going to knowledge surge. You will learn a lot. … More I would also recommend Lynn as your instructor when you get to start driving the trucks. She is a great teacher ( the best) with a lot of patience. All around good person to be around. She will make your lessons enjoyable. No stress. Teach you and have a good time doing it, she will let you know if you missed something and tell you how to fix it or remember. Takes her job seriously and her main goal is for you too pass so she will do everything she can to get you ready for the big road test.

I just want to say that the knowledge and professionalism of your team was at a level I didn’t expect. The content of the program and how it was delivered … More was really well versed and it didn’t matter if it was in class or in cab all of the instructor’s recognized how myself as a individual was absorbing the information.
These Instructor’s all went above and beyond and made a relationship that won’t be forgotten.
Also the process of applying and setting up lessons with a full time job was effortless so thank you and your staff for that aswell Rhiannon.
Thankyou to All the instructors
Lynn Dave Jim Greg and Last but not least instructor Dave Seeley with all your experience you make one great school.

After starting a second career I was hesitant and also nervous to be returning to school to begin another career. This didn’t last long as on my first … More contact with the team at Knowledge Surge from the manager(s) to the trainers ; everyone was welcoming and helpful. This institution provided me with the knowledge to obtain a FT position within 3 days of passing my road test. Knowledge Surge is recognized throughout the industry as one of the best and I can see why. The instructors were helpful and patient, I can’t recommend them enough.

I truly enjoyed my time in this program (EliteStart Pro MELT) and found that all the instructors brought their own unique edge to the lessons, providing … More a holistic learning experience.
I want to thank my skilled and highly-personable instructors Dave S., Greg, Jim, Lynn, and Dave T. for enriching our time together with their deep knowledge, expertise, and vibrant personalities, Don for his words of encouragement before my final DriveTest (when I needed it most), and a special thanks to Rhiannon, the commercial vehicle programs manager, for having my back and going the extra mile for me every- single- time.
Truth be told, I'd be nowhere without this crew.
I experienced my share of challenges and setbacks in passing my DriveTest exam, but with the continued support and care from these great people, I finally achieved my goal of becoming a professional AZ driver.
Sincerely, thank you.
100/100, would highly recommend to future students.
