This course provides a fundamental working knowledge of the varied aspects of the trucking industry and prepares students for an entry level position as a truck driver with a company that employs CDL Class B drivers.  Students will become familiar with the “Rules and Regulations” governing the industry as well experiencing hands on driving techniques designed to prepare them to successfully pass both the written and practical portions of the State’s CDL B driver’s license test.

The program is primarily designed to allow an entry-level driver to find his or her first job with a company who employs Delivery Drivers, Dump Truck Drivers, Cement Truck Drivers, Bucket Truck Drivers, Straight Truck Drivers, and more.
