Hear From Graduates
The CDL class has given me courage and determination to keep going. I now have all my endorsements, including tank and hazmat. I own two trucks now and have started my own trucking company. I'm pretty sure if you just stick to the program and work hard, you can do just about anything. Thanks again, to my teachers Matt and Zach for not only trusting me behind the wheel, but making me who I am today.
