Class A Tractor/Trailer Comprehensive Training Programs

If you are looking to drive one of the big rigs then our comprehensive programs will help you get ready for the open road.  We have three different programs to meet the different needs of our customers.  Please visit our office if you need help to determine which program is best for you.

All of these programs include classroom and behind the wheel instruction and taken concurrently.   The classroom sessions are held Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 9:00 a.m. to noon. The air brake class is also held on Saturday mornings from 9:00 a.m. to noon. 

Phase 1 of these programs will focus on preparing you for and passing the CDL road test.  The intent of the Professional Tractor Trailer Program is to prepare you for a career driving a Big Rig for a major carrier.  These trucking companies expect you to be proficient with multi speed transmissions.  For this program you will spend all of your training with trucks that have a manual transmission.   

After you have passed your road test, you will start Phase 2 of the training where you will learn how to drive the big trucks in the real world.  You will progress at your own pace and move up to larger equipment when you feel comfortable with taking another step up.  The training in the trucks is by appointment. 

The length of time to complete your training will depend on how much time you have available during the week and if you pass your first attempt at the CDL road test.  Most of our comprehensive program students pass their first test but if you fail your first attempt, we will give you another opportunity for another test whenever you feel ready.  The state will make you wait one week to take a second road test and if you fail again they will require you to wait two more weeks before you can take a third test. Once you have passed your test we will finish your training as quickly as your schedule allows based on the availability of our instructors.
