    Good day everyone,

    I am looking at going to Milllis training in Trenton, Oh. I have heard a lot of good things about Millis in this forum. Is there anyone who has recently been thorugh the Trenton training center? I live in Columbus, Ohio but my parents live in Hamilton, Oh not far from Trenton. Figured I could stay there during class. Any and all input welcome! Thanks to all and have a great day!:biggrin_255: Please feel free to PM me. Thanks

    Just wondered what the experience was like in general from applying to graduation. May I ask how your experience has been so far? I haven't heard anything negative about Millis. Like the idea of a 3 week school and cost is affordable. Thanks!

    Well lets see. I applied on a monday called on wednesday of that week to check on my app. The lady i talked to was super nice. She told me that Alice was working on it and to call back the next day after noon. Well i woke up on that Thursday and there was already a message on my cell that they accepted my app and to call them back. I called and they were very nice and explained everything over the phone. The schooling is $2500 but they finance $2000 of it so you just have to come up with $500. they take $100 right away to save your spot for the class. The other $400 you take with you for the first day of class.

    As soon as i paid the $100 they processed it and then emailed me the forms for me to print out and fill out to bring to class. I then had to go get my CDL permit and my DOT physical and fax copies of those to them so they can get a head start on the paperwork. I did that this week. I also asked about the hotel since i live an hour away. But then if figured i would just stay at the hotel instead of driving back and forth 2 hours a day. The school is monday thru friday so i can go home on the weekends. I also have had several questions which i email to Fay and she emails me back quick with answers.

    You will love working with this company.

    I graduated from the Trenton school recently along with Curtiscurse. The one thing I really want to inform ya'll about is "Dont Be Late". Bill absolutely hates it when anyone is late for class. The van leaves the hotel about 45 minutes before class, be on it! Other than that, listen in class, turn your phone off, practice your PTI every day. The real fun is when your couped up with a trainer in his truck for 5 weeks, memories! lol
