Program Description
The course material presented in the Class A CDL Preparatory program is designed to allow the reasonably diligent student to take and pass the Commercial Driver’s License test. The graduate will have sufficient skills and knowledge to allow employment as an entry-level Tractor Trailer Driver or Straight Truck Driver.
The program is primarily designed to allow an entry-level driver to find his or her first job with a large Company doing over the road type driving. These companies have their own in-house training departments that provide additional training to entry-level drivers. The exceptional student will be able to find employment in a smaller company without a training department.
The Training consists of a combination of classroom training, hands on training in a practice yard and hands on training on the road.
