Yes. Great school! The instructors are awesome! They really work with you to make sure you know what you're doing. Only two students to a truck. Just started my second week. And love it. We are testing on coupling/uncoupling tomorrow. Been doing a lot of straight backing, shifting/downshifting in the straight lanes. Offset backing starts tomorrow. First road trip is next Wednesday. Just to give you an idea of the time frame. Homework every night for the first two weeks. Classroom for the first two to three days. And then it's range practice and more range practice. In-house CDL test after about three weeks. The whole program is four and a half weeks. If you can't tell, I would highly recommend this school. Good luck wherever you go!

That's where I went It was a lot of fun and the instructors were great! Plus being an accredited school really helps, there were a few companies that wouldnt hire students normally but do hire from central tech... Groendyke and Trimac are a couple I remember.

Is Mr. Elliot still there? He was my instructor, I graduated April 2014 Anyway.... good luck and have fun learning!

haha I just read your last post....congratulations on getting your license!

Thanks! We have Mr. McMillan and Mr. Elliot. They are now having two instructors for each class. They say that really helps them out and makes things go even smoother. Love this school! I think I'm gonna miss this place. Only have three more days coming up. We'll take a night trip, one more day trip, and then graduation day! We tested last Tuesday but those who didn't pass will be testing again this coming week before graduation. That's one reason for going the extra week. For those of us that did pass, we stay the extra week for the experience and for that PTDI certificate.
