Project Description
Truck Driver Training
The 352-hours Entry-Level Driver Training (CDL) course provides students with training to inspect and operate tractor-trailers, and to assume driving responsibilities on the road. Highway driving, training range exercises, and classroom lectures are used to develop the student’s knowledge and skills. The course also covers the required FMCSA theory training to obtain the CDL Hazmat Endorsement.
Upon completion of this course the student is prepared to pass the NC DMV CDL Class A skills exam, and also the DMV computer Hazmat knowledge test, to earn their Hazmat endorsement. Students will then be prepared to apply for employment with a respected motor carrier as an entry level driver.

| Monday through Friday | 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (9 weeks) |
| WEEKEND TRAINING | TIME |
