Q: How many days will I need to attend class each week—and for how long?
A: Our program runs Monday-Thursday for 3 hours each day. We understand that many of our students are still working other jobs or holding down family responsibilities while working toward their future in trucking. To help make the process as compatible as possible with your current lifestyle, we offer varying time slots to attend our program.
- 9AM-12PM
- 1PM-4PM
- 5PM-8PM
In order to provide consistency for other students, as well as for our driving instructors, we do require students to sign up for one time slot and commit to it.
