starting training in Green Bay on Feb 7th

depending on your aptitude at the skills, anywhere from 7-14 days. I split time with another trainee and was only out for 8. Be open to whats said and try to apply whats been said.

Pay attention in trip planning at orientation. Do all the home work they give you. It WILL help when you are out here on your own.


Good Luck and welcome aboard.

Congrats. I start in Dallas on the 7th. I was told I would be out anywhere from 5 to 10 days with a trainer. Who knows.

 

I am starting in Green Bay tomorrow, too. My recruiter said that we would be out with the trainer from Sunday-Sunday. They have changed the way that orientation/training operates in the last month, and apparently the new system is a lot better for both SNI and trainees, too. Good luck to you.

 

well, theres driving with a trainer during orientation(to evaluate your skills) and then theres over the road work with a TE( training engineer).

 

From what I have read here in the forums, it seems like a good idea to keep a blog of the day-by-day aspects of the Orientation/Training process, so I am doing that. If you go to my profile, you can get a link to my blog from there.

 

Day one went well! See my blog http://metzgerovertheroad.wordpress.com to keep up with how Orientation in Green Bay is going this week.
