Graduated Students
I’ve gained the skills to pay the bills!
Initially, I was apprehensive about starting CDL training during the middle of a pandemic but 160 Driving Academy quickly put me ease when I saw all of the precautions that were taken including daily temperature checks, mandatory masks and wiping down the vehicles after each driver. When it came to the yard instructions, I worked primarily with Roxana and Lance. Both gave me great insight on how to operate a commercial motor vehicle and essential backing techniques, so much so that I was offered a position with a company as an Intermodal driver (lots of backing). My only critique or suggestions is to dump the parallel parking and teach a 45 or 90 degree backing. All in all it was a GREAT experience and I would definitely recommend anyone to 160 Driving Academy.
Fresno 160
The Fresno 160 guys Raul, Miguel, and Tim are all really good guys and very very helpful. You can ask them anything about the industry and they will let you know. More importantly they do everything they can to help you out and make sure you absolutely get all your skills and pre-trip down to get your license at the DMV. They really do everything in their power to make sure you get your license and are successful!

160 Experience
I had an amazing experience. My instructor Dave Simmons was by far the best instructor Ive could've had. I appreciate the time he has taken to explain everything yet be a very funny and friendly person making it that much easier to pass. I also need to thank Scott Wuebbels for staying in touch and helping trough into the yard but also answer any question or issues I had. 160 is a great school and company and I appreciate everything they have done for me in my next step in life. Thank You!

New Location!!!!
So when my husband and I started this journey we were signed up for a different school till we found out that one was opening in Saint Cloud. We jumped on that location right away because it was more convenient for our family. Since they just opened the location we got to be the first students at the site and so we got all the things that came with the tweeks to the program. However everything turned out to be an amazing experience through it all. Joe in the classroom portion of it was AWESOME and always willing to go above and beyond to keep us happy and find the answers to the stuff he didn't know. Our yard instructors Shawn and Derrick were GREAT with all the students. Having open minds and patience for all of us really helped us. This is a FANTASTIC school and I would definitely recommend it over and over again to anyone willing to want to be a driver!!!
CDL Certified
Hello, my name is Eric Dent. I am writing to express my indebted gratitude for the way that I was taken care of from day one in pursuit of my CDL. Beginning with Ms. Lilly and onto the staff educational instructors at the Columbia campus were simply great and professional. These instructors gave me the tools from their expertise instructional driving experience of many years on the road along with their class room acumen. When I had doubt in myself and ability to excel, they kept encouraging me, they did not give up on me, and guess what, well, here I am, I am now apart of an elite club called Truckers of America. I have a commercial driver's license (HeHeHe). Again, and again, and gain, thank you, thank you, and thank you for positioning me success. And I must admit, the instructors on the yard worked with me until I got the concept and proper driving techniques to pass CDL Test. And if I can do it, anyone that has a desire for CDL can also obtain this highly coveted license. Thanks, Eric,
