What Our Students Say About Us:

This college definitely deserves more than 5 stars. The staff here are absolutely amazing, and incredibly helpful. They offer the support you need both academically and they even help with your personal problems.

Vanessa Vieira

Trillium College truly helped me get my career on track... it is a very good place to go to school

LJohn Bishop

The class sizes are smaller so it's far easier to engage with the instructors. The cost is comparable to other colleges - actually for a 2 year diploma program the cost is identical to any other college. The student finance advisor is an absolute master at carving through any OSAP issues you may have.

Kristan Cannon

My experience with Trillium was more than AMAZING. Going back to school at 55 was a huge step to begin with...but the best step I ever took....all of the staff were amazing and my teacher was so AWESOME. The rest of the staff were right there when needed and before long they became family. Class size was good also. Because of all of these wonderful people, I was able to fulfill my dream, and am now a Personal Support Worker. I graduated December 14th with honours. So if you want an exciting and fun environment...try Trillium. Thank you to everyone that was a part of my journey.
