During this session, representatives will share how the program has revised its training in response to the new federal regulations regarding obtaining a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). Admission requirements, funding options, and career opportunities in the trucking industry will be discussed. Students can receive both online and behind-the-wheel training at the SEC. A 6-week non-financial aid eligible program is scheduled to begin April 24. Classes meet Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The program uses industry-standard equipment as teaching tools. Class A CDL drivers are in unprecedented demand. Some employers may fund tuition costs.
