    What do you need to know?
    You are on your own after four weeks of intensive training

    I know when I got outta school [18 months ago] and called them. They wanted me to pay 1200.00, so I can go through there class and then do there 4 wks of training. I told the recruiter thanks but no thanks. I wasn't going to pay more funds for my CDL.

    School?...Do you mean orientation?...If so, it's FREE(you actually get paid) and only 10 days then you're on your own in your truck...I don't think they have a school...

    There's defiinitely no 4 weeks of training...

    Check out the Watkins Shepard section, there's more info there and plenty of people you can contact for the real deal, myself included...

    The Watkins Shepard School has been closed! Why would anyone bring up such an old and outdated thread???

    So do they not keep their website up to date? According to it, they do offer a 4 week CDL school.

    Must be outdated, or that'd be where I am going on Monday. It's definitely closed. Now it's 10 day orientations only.

    I dont know when the last time they updated it was but i can tell you its all outdated (the recruiting part anyway).

    Best bet is to call a recruiter or ask on here
