Truck driving is one of the few occupations where students who complete the training are almost certain to go to work. Unlike other professions, driving a truck is one for which there will be an ongoing demand. Regardless of the commodity being shipped and regardless of economic conditions, there will always be trucks moving goods. Most students receive several job offers prior to completion of the course. The four-week course includes:
- Hazardous Materials testing
- On-the-road driving
- Job placement assistance
- Commercial Driver's License Review
- Qualified, experienced instructors
The tuition of $2,500 qualifies for over-the-road company tuition reimbursement. Please contact
