    Anyone know of some good places to get CDL training in the ST.Louis area that accept Federal grants?

    Not sure about MTC in Earth City, but Premiere CDL in Granite City will, and Kaskaskia College will accept grants. They have a school in East St. Louis. Talk to Rich at Premiere and Dean Daum at Kaskaskia. I'd prefer Kaskaskia, am 8 week course, seems more comprehensive, and you end up with Hazmat/doubles, etc.

    MTC said no when I called. Premiere might be my best bet at 41 min away.

    Thanks

    You're welcome. Not sure if you're talking about WIA, Premiere turned me on to that option, but this area of IL is out of WIA money until July. Pell grant, may have to be through a community college. I have a Bachelor's Degree in business, so no Pell Grant for me.

    I am hoping for a Pell grant. All the community colleges I have looked at don't seem to offer a CDL class.
