How Our CDL Training Program Works
Step 1
Meet Your Advisor
Your advisor will:
- Help you choose the right license class (Class A or Class B) for your goals and lifestyle.
- Guide you through prerequisites (DOT physical, drug screen) and getting your Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP).
- Discuss funding options and, in some cases, help you get pre-approved with an employer for after graduation.
- Set your class start date and review options to shorten training by completing a portion online.
- Arrange housing if you’re training from out of town.
Step Two
Attend Training (2 — 4 Weeks)
- Class A: 4 weeks — 1 week classroom + 3 weeks range/road.
- Class B: 2 weeks — 1 week classroom + 1 week range/road.
