I can't speak for every company/ situation but the two companies I have worked for train you and get you ready to go to the DMV and take the test from the state so ultimately it's the state dot that makes the pass/fail call.

There are many different ways this is done. There are DMV (DDS in Georgia) testers, but there are also third party testers. A lot depends upon where you are testing. One company that I was considering, would have me convert my CDL Permit over to the state that their training is in. Then I would test there, and convert my CDL back to my home state, afterwards.
Keep in mind that if they are using a third party tester, you may have to pay that person. If you fail, you may have to pay them more than once. Some states DMV charge for testing.FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -

The DMV, or whatever state government agency you call it, will decide whether or not you get a CDL.
You MAY still have to take a company road test and pass that. That’s just to see if they will hire you.FlaSwampRat and tscottme Thank this. -
Your real educating starts on your first employer with the first load. And yer it. There should be no leaks. IF any are found in your Driver Vehicle Identifation eport you list the estimated amount and if the product is hazmaterias.
If you think Officer Coaltrain and deputy Bigring have trouble with that important concept endangering the community you can escalate the response.
No one will believe you. Untilyou grab everything you can can carry.
"THAT has FUMES in that product. Three breaths paralyze you and then kill you when the heart stops.
Fortunate for all of us you will have to eat about 60 pounds in one sitting. But to metabolize all that down to 1000 milliliter (Whatever that is... REALLY sall amounts..) via your liver working over time and you essentially just sit here waiting. -
You had to ask.FlaSwampRat and Diesel Dave Thank this. -
The people at the school I went to were also DMV examiners, so they administered the test.
FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -
I'm assuming you are asking about the official written/computer knowledge tests and the driving & pre-trip tests. Companies can also administer their own test to new-hires. That test doesn't affect your state CDL.NavigatorWife Thanks this.
