CDL Training Campus Locations.

The schools are located near the major freight lanes and hiring areas of the Driver Solutions network companies.  By utilizing only a select number of training providers, the Driver Solutions network is able to offer you a quality training experience in your region. 

School facilities and equipment.

The truck driving schools feature state-of-the-art facilities all developed to help make your training as easy as possible. Some of these features may include multimedia learning tools, a computerized driving simulator that'll give you a feel for the "big rig", well-designed student training materials and a large paved training ground.

Driving instructors each have an average of over 5 years of professional over-the-road driving experience.  The instructors understand the issues facing new drivers and can help by relating their knowledge and experience of the career.  In addition to his own driving experience, each instructor completes an intensive instructional program on effective CDL training.  This helps Driver Solutions ensure a consistent training program.       

The training fleet includes over 65 late model Freightliner conventional tractors and dry van trailers with simulated loads. The fleet is professionally maintained to ensure your training experience is the very best.  Our goal is to train you on equipment with features similar to the equipment the network carriers are using. 

What the CDL training program teaches you.

The truck driver training program begins with your DOT physical, DOT drug screen and CDL permit testing. Then, for the first two weeks, your training will include a mixture of classroom and range work, including things like backing-up exercises, etc.  For your final week, training will include a mixture of street and range training.  To graduate, you'll need to pass both a final road test and the CDL skills test.

Your classroom time will cover:

• Proper logging routines
• Trip planning
• Map reading
• Hazardous materials regulations
• Accident prevention
• Defensive driving techniques
• Safety and mechanical issues

Your behind-the-wheel time will let you practice techniques you learned in the classroom and more:

• Driving range and street exercises
• Shifting techniques
• Backing and turning
• Proper pre-trip inspections
• Accident prevention

A big emphasis is placed on the skills needed to pass the CDL skills test, which you'll take at the end of your training.
