Our Company
At Hopfe Training Centre, we believe that great drivers are built through focus, mentorship, and real-world experience. Based in Weyburn, Saskatchewan, our mission is to deliver training that goes beyond the basics — creating safe, confident, and professional drivers who are ready for both the road and the transportation industry.
Our programs, including Class 1 MELT and Class 3 driver training, are designed with flexibility and quality in mind. Through the Focused Drive Model, students train in smaller, personalized sessions that emphasize one-on-one instruction, real driving time, and practical skill development. This approach ensures every graduate leaves prepared not just to pass their SGI road test, but to succeed in real working environments.
What sets us apart is The Hopfe Advantage: structured scheduling, individualized coaching, and a genuine commitment to every student’s success. Whether you’re starting a new career or refining existing skills, we provide a clear, professional path forward — built on safety, accountability, and respect for the craft of driving.
Community Involvement & Industry Engagement
Hopfe Training Centre is proud to be an active supporter of Saskatchewan communities. Beyond the classroom, we invest in local events, student opportunities, and industry partnerships that help connect future drivers with real-world experiences.
Throughout the year, we participate in community festivals, motorsports sponsorships, gaming and youth events, school partnerships, and regional giveaways designed to create awareness, provide value, and support local engagement. From event sponsorships like the Bengough Gateway Festival to raceway partnerships, tournament support, and student-focused promotions, our involvement reflects our commitment to giving back while growing the next generation of professional drivers.
We also work directly with schools, local businesses, and community organizations to offer ticket bundles, contests, and student outreach programs that introduce young adults to career opportunities in commercial driving.
Looking Ahead
As Hopfe Training Centre continues to grow, our focus remains the same: expand responsibly, stay hands-on with our students, and remain visible and active in the communities we serve. By combining professional training standards with real local involvement, we aim to set a higher benchmark for driver education in Southeast Saskatchewan.
When you train with Hopfe Training Centre, you’re not just enrolling in a course — you’re joining a community that values safety, mentorship, professionalism, and long-term success.
“Hopfe Training Centre is a Saskatchewan Class 1 driver training school built on one principle above all else: safety.
Safety isn’t just a rule here — it’s the foundation of everything we do. Every maneuver, from shifting and backing to complex turning and highway driving, is taught with precision, patience, and purpose. Nothing happens by chance. Each movement behind the wheel is carefully planned, practiced, and performed with real-world safety standards in mind.
As a professional Class 1 instructor in Southeast Saskatchewan, I don’t just teach — I invest in people. My goal is to prepare each student not only for their SGI road test, but for a long-term trucking career. Hopfe Training Centre provides hands-on commercial driver training that reflects what drivers actually face on the job, not just what’s needed to pass an exam. From pre-employment driving preparation to confidence-building practice sessions, my commitment to each student continues beyond graduation.
The Hopfe Advantage means professionalism and respect go both ways. At our Weyburn-based training facility, we believe in leading by example — showing up prepared, operating safely, and maintaining high standards both in the classroom and on the road. This approach builds discipline, trust, and consistent results for new commercial drivers across Saskatchewan.
Through our Focused Drive Training Model, every student receives personalized instruction, real driving time, and structured coaching designed to build safe habits and strong decision-making skills. Our mission is simple: help you pass your Class 1 license test, master professional driving skills, and become the type of safe, reliable driver today’s transportation industry needs.
Join me and the Hopfe Training Centre team for professional Class 1 driver training in Saskatchewan — where safety, mentorship, and pride in the profession drive everything we do.”
Our Training Approach: The Focused Drive Model
At Hopfe Training Centre, we understand that every student has their own story. Whether you’re changing careers, supporting a family, or chasing a dream, we’re here to help you build a future on the road — one mile at a time.
That’s why we built a school that puts you first.
Owner and instructor Jordan Hopfe created Hopfe Training Centre with one goal: to make professional driver training accessible, personal, and effective for real people with real lives. Whether you’re upgrading your career, supporting a family, or starting fresh, our training fits around you — not the other way around.
Our approach is called the Focused Drive Model, and it’s what makes Hopfe different.
Training built for real people, real schedules, and real success.
We believe your time matters. So instead of sitting for long classroom days or watching others drive, you train during the hours that count — hands-on, one-on-one instruction that helps you learn faster and build real confidence behind the wheel.
Here’s what you can expect:
-
Flexible scheduling – choose what works for you, so you can keep working or caring for your family.
-
Focused hours – every session is practical and purposeful, no filler.
-
Real-world results – we prepare you not just for the SGI test, but for the realities of professional trucking.
It’s not about packing in hours. It’s about building skills that last.
