Roehl Transport -- my story

how it going all im in phase 3 at roehl just got my truck 2013 prostar+ im flat bed national im at home for a few days then out on the road for my adventure ... So for they have been a great company treated me well... for the new guys going into phase 1 it it easy to a point but its also hard you have a lot of long days and as long as you listen and show improvement you will be fine.. i did mine up in mashfield wi .

Happy Trucking Yall if ya have any questions or anything ask im more then happy to help yall

 

is it right that they give alot of homework during phase 1?

 

How many days of OTR training did you get in Phase 2? Was it sufficient? It seems like Roehl has the shortest amount of time in OTR training.

 

It is short, maybe too short. They do a little more comprehensive training before you ever get out with a trainer than most,

 

That's what I've assumed. Their longer orientation/phase 1 training is a very attractive feature to me. Hopefully it brings newbies up to speed with the fundamentals. I'll just have to trust that the fact Roehl is indeed a training company is evidence that the Phase 2 training is at least adequate.

Thanks for the comment!

 

I've trained 5 guys that went through the phase training and they came out of phase 1 with a really good grasp on the fundamentals. I feel like most of them could have started out from phase one and went right to work. Phase 2 is for polishing skills and also to do the job, but also have someone there if you need them.

 

so what's phase 1 really teaches you backing ups, maneauvering, logbook, accident report and stuff like that, because I heard it is hard they give alot of assignments i dont what is it all about really.

 

There is alot of home work... you will be at class 8 hrs durring the day then go back to the hotel to do 2-5 hrs of home work its a lot of work and you may think its dumb but its really good stuff looking back on it now durring it

 

What model trucks to they run? Are their sleepers double wides?
