    Anybody ever heard of a Class A 350 Hour diploma?

    A truck school here in Fresno is advertising it. I was wondering if anybody had ever heard of this and it was an official, DMV recognized class, or if it was maybe just an extra-long class that they offered. They also offer shorter length classes.

    Thanks!

    My class was 8 weeks and 380 hours. Outstanding program at the local community college and well worth it and under $1000. The extra time in the seat really paid off when I went to orientation.

    My class was similar to FM's above, and it bestowed 12 college credit hours upon me at graduation.
