Mentor has TWIC card and I do not.

So today I got my mentor and spoke over the phone with him and he seems like a nice guy. I'll meet him tomorrow to start my training but he told me he does port to port, so he must have a twic card but can I go to those places if I don't have a twic card? Also will I get the full experience of an otr driver and get trained properly?

 

I am not planning on getting a twic card, I was just wondering if I would be able to go to the port since my mentor has a twic card and does port to port. From I understand I can from your replies. Right? lol

 

Also will this set me up right before I go solo and on my own. Will I still be learning things as a otr person not doing twic stuff with my mentor? I am planning on doing dry van /reefer after I am solo

 

Thanks for your reply, I was worried I would not get the same training as others ( people without twic card ). I don't Plan on getting it. I want to do dry/reefer. So as long the training is the same.

 

I still want to go to different states and learn how to drive mountains and stuff like that. I want to learn everything before I go solo.
