Students will attend four weeks of classroom instruction and comprehensive Theory and Behind-The-Wheel training. They will learn about rules, regulations, and traffic laws. Students will also learn how to operate a Class A CDL truck, including pre-trip inspections and gear shifting. They will practice driving in both city and rural settings. Additionally, they will learn how to drive in challenging conditions, such as at night, in the snow, and in the rain. After completing 160 hours, students will be ready to take the required tests to obtain a CDL. Our Class A certification prepares students for careers in the trucking industry.
