WIOA Funding

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is a federal workforce development program designed to help eligible individuals receive training for in-demand careers.

160 Driving Academy works with participating workforce agencies and can provide the school and program documentation needed as you work through the WIOA application and approval process.

WIOA may be a good option if you:

  • Are unemployed or underemployed
  • Meet eligibility requirements established by your local workforce agency
  • Are seeking training for an in-demand career such as commercial truck driving
  • Want to explore whether government funding may help cover eligible training costs

Affirm Financing

For students looking for another way to manage the cost of CDL training, financing through Affirm may be available.

Affirm provides eligible applicants with financing options that can allow the cost of training to be paid over time, subject to Affirm’s application, approval, terms, and conditions.

160 Driving Academy can introduce you to the Affirm application process so you can determine whether financing is an option for you.

Affirm may be a good option if you:

  • Want to spread the cost of training over time
  • Prefer a financing option rather than paying the full tuition amount upfront
  • Want to quickly determine what financing options you may qualify for
