    I have at least another week, before I need to make a decision, to sign up for Sheridan College, to make sure I get a spot for the June starting course. I guess $2000 for a 320hr course and locally (20min from home) can't be found anywhere else.

    I was going to suggest McFatter in Davie but apparently they don't do trucking anymore. A state school is the way to go anything else is a ripoff.
    I snuck back into the industry after a 12 yr break. I used CR England and was out of there like a rocket at exactly 6 months to Crete.

    Yes, that is correct, I actually found Sheridan, because someone referred McFatter.

    It has been done.
    Today I enrolled into Sheridan College. I made my down payment and got my student license.
    Classes start on June 08th 2016 and will take 9 weeks.
    this is for the 320 hour class.

    I went back when they were McFatter on Davie Rd and thought it was very good instruction. We had to do 1,000 miles on the road which is a lot more than I hear other schools doing. Being able to do all your DMV testing on familiar road/range and with your own instructor was a bonus.
