As stated above, contract training generally has a steep cost satisfied by reduced wage. If you have the means, pony up for the school.
Check into tuition reimbursement. Most carriers that hire entry-level drivers have some form of tuition reimbursement. Generally it is paid on a monthly payment basis, so even if you only stay at your first carrier 6 months, some of your tuition has been reimbursed.
Best of luck to you.
Should I go to a $2000 school or sign one year contract?

Ooh...12 hours. 2 grand.
That's a good racket. -

Yeah, I can't see that being nearly enough preparation to pass a road test. And it is certainly not good value for money...40 percent or more of the cost of the standard course but they provide what.. 8 percent of the service.

2k for 12 is good deal better then 2k for 2 hours that I went to.

Nice.
To the OP, pay the 2000 yourself, you will make that back in 6 weeks.
DO NOT indenture yourself by signing something you cannot depend on (Staying employed a year.)
If they want me to sign a contract, put up a second contract that they cannot dispose of me for a year.Richhoop Thanks this.
