I've been off the road for about 9 years

not that i know of or have even heard of. you would pretty much have to know somebody on the inside to skip a refresher course. plus since things have changed a bit , a refresher course might not be a bad idea for you. good luck. plus some companies will put you through a course to help you out.

 

Check out maverick. They will not require a refresher. I know you can not PM yet, but you can email me or YIM me if you want.

 

why does flatbedding seem more leniat on this?

 

I don't think it so much just flatbedding. Seems like most co's want the refresher.

 

thats what i am thinking but you said mav won't require it. is that all flatbedding or just mav ?

 

Mav is flatbedding, but they are the only one that I know of that will not require a refresher. That is one reason why I went with them. The other reasons was what I found out about them as I was looking at them.

 

I did not need a job when I went with mav. I was looking at companies like companies look at drivers. They had to meet my criteria for me to go with them.

 

thats about what i figured. companies seem to pushing experience now a days and if no exp. then a refresher is required. i don't know but i am thinking some companies will help with refresher courses.
