| ..as far as I know yes, that's what was told to me at the workforce ofc here in Eugene, if you're going to an accredited CDL school u need a pre-hire letter.. it's just a formallity for the grant, it's not binding or conditional u actually get hired by the company u get the pre-hire from when u graduate & get ur CDL.. ..also it's only once a month they submit the paperwork for these grants & for this month the cutoff is the 10th thru the 13th of Aug. They (Oregon Worforce) don't know how long these grants will be available; next month they may not be processing any or they may have them availabe, they said these grants could be cutoff at anytime..  |

| Is a trucking company going to train you? If so, I am not sure the grant will pay them. I thought it needed to be an approved and accredited school? |

| Congrats TM - Orientation for me is Monday 8/17 - Denver. All I know is that they best teach me how to up-shift and down shifts on grades. I could have used another 8 hours on the mountain roads to get that part down! I guess they also need to teach me how to handle a rig. Things don't look as sweet now that crunch time is coming. What happens in orientation, besides company rules, skills test and drug test? Does anyone know if there is a wait for a trainer? |

 check your local Workforce Ofc. first.. ..yes in Idaho the pre-hire offers would be totally different than here in Oregon to qualify for a govt. grant, plus u have to be a resident of the state where you're going to school, & it has to be an accredited PTDI school, at least those are the requirements here to qualify.. ..these can change from week to week; May or any other company can notify the school admissions dir. & say yes we will do pre-hires now so you have more options, but like i said before, this is just a paperwork fomallity & isn't binding when u graduate.. |

| I am looking at going through Elite (so I can avoid the meat grinder training programs). After that, OO, with my own authority if I have to, I don't want to be under anyones thumb (any more than necessary). |

| Pre-hires dont mean jack. Until you are an official employee...nothing is for sure. |
