Howdy folks...
So I have a good question....
Does anyone know if the 'required hours' you complete at a carrier training school will transfer to the next training school you go to? Or will I be continually accumulating hours until I obtain my CDL ??
Thanks in advance for the insight.

I have the same question as 8thnote. but to be honest I would highly doubt it. Each school is a little different on the hours you want to complete. I normally tell people to bite the bullet and head to your local community college and go through a CDL program that way. There are plenty of fed and state grants to allow this to happen and this keeps you from having to sign a 1 year contract with most of these places for a school that really doesn't teach you what you need to know. I say this as a trainer for many of these students that come out of these school who cant tell there figure out the difference from there ### to a hole in the ground.

I don't think it works that way. At our school, they only give you a transcript if you graduate and pass your CDL driving test.
Each certified school is responsible for the required hours.
A couple people tested for their license before the required hours were complete and they came back to the campus to finish whatever hours they lacked.

I thought training hours were on a State-by-State basis? Hell, in Indiana you can get a permit & train however you choose. Gotta buddy who is an O/O? Go on the road with him. Once you are confident you can pass the skills test you can rent the equipment to take the test for $125.00.
Total cost:$17+$125+$36=$178.00Enovvy and TequilaSunrise Thank this. -
