triOS College, as part of triOS Education Group, is proud to announce that it has once again been recognized as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies, marking its 16th consecutive year receiving this national honour. triOS has also maintained its place in the prestigious Platinum Club for the 10th year in a row, a distinction reserved for organizations that have sustained their Canada’s Best Managed Companies status for seven or more consecutive years while demonstrating continued excellence in leadership, innovation, culture, and long-term growth.

This recognition reflects the collective dedication of the triOS College community across Ontario. From instructors and campus teams to Campus Support staff, employer partners, and leadership, this achievement is a testament to the people who work every day to support students, strengthen outcomes, and deliver career-focused education that changes lives.

“Being recognized as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for the 16th consecutive year is an incredible honour and a reflection of the people behind triOS,” said Craig Donaldson, President of triOS Education Group. “Our instructors, campus teams, support staff, and employer partners all play an important role in creating opportunities for students and preparing them for meaningful careers. This achievement belongs to every member of our triOS community.”

At triOS College, this recognition is also a reflection of the values staff live every day. Integrity builds trust across campuses and communities, dedication keeps student success at the centre of every decision, readiness allows teams to embrace change, and respect shapes the way employees support students, colleagues, and employer partners. Together, these values help create the consistency, culture, and leadership excellence that have contributed to triOS Education Group’s continued recognition as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies.

The award also highlights triOS Education Group’s continued commitment to innovation and student success. Through ongoing investment in program development, emerging technologies, employer partnerships, and learner support, triOS College continues to strengthen its role as a leader in private career education in Ontario.

“What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it speaks to our consistency, our culture, and our shared purpose,” added Donaldson. “At triOS, we believe education has the power to transform lives. Our continued success comes from staying focused on students, listening to employers, supporting our teams, and evolving to meet the needs of the future workforce.”

This year’s Best Managed recognition also follows another important workplace milestone for triOS Education Group: earning Great Place To Work® Certification. The certification reflects the strong, people-centred culture that supports triOS’ continued success, from engaged employees and collaborative teams to a shared commitment to student outcomes. By fostering a workplace where employees feel supported, valued, and connected to the mission of helping students become job-ready graduates, triOS continues to build the kind of culture and leadership excellence that contribute to its ongoing recognition as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies.

As triOS Education Group looks ahead, the organization remains committed to delivering high-quality, career-focused education that prepares students for success. Through triOS College, this means continuing to provide hands-on learning, industry-relevant curriculum, student support, and employer connections that help graduates pursue meaningful careers and contribute to Canada’s workforce.
