CDL CLASS A
If you have a good driving record, can pass the DOT
physical and meet other regulatory requirements, you, too, can become a
professional truck driver. With such great demand for top-quality drivers, wages
well above the national average, and plenty of room for advancement, why not
choose this exciting career? Financial aid is available to those who qualify.
Job placement assistance is available and, in many cases, students are
conditionally pre-hired by motor carriers before they complete the course. Early
registration is recommended to enable us to provide you with proper forms and
counseling. Course fees do not include the cost of commercial driver's license,
physical examination, books or motor vehicle record. The CDL licensing
examination is usually scheduled during the last week of the course.
The six-weeks course provides classroom instruction, yard/field maneuvers and
behind-the-wheel/observation training. Topics include map reading, logs, trip
planning, vehicle inspections and systems, DOT regulations, and safe operation
of the CDL vehicles. Conventional and cab-over tractors provide hands-on
training to enable clients to become proficient in the operation of CDL
vehicles.
