Great Place to train

5.0 out of 5 · Jessica R. · 1 day ago

I honestly loved learning here, the only thing I would change is mostly all the trucks that keep breaking down, because it affects the students from completing their training or getting their hours to finish up, and possibly show the students how to drive a manual and do the proper steps with shifting up and down, it was a huge challenge for me to downshift without being shown how as im a visual and hands on learner. Other than that the instructors were wonderful, i learned a lot from the head instructor Chris and Matt showed us what not to do and do and one instructor needs to learn how to stay calm and be patient with the trainees, as learning how to drive a Semi is not an easy task, we all know they are much bigger vehicles and can cause more damage on the road if an issue were to occur, but that is all part of the learning process.
