    So I was wondering if there were any trucking companies out there that will sponsor someone who is getting ready to go to truck driver school?

    Hello:)

    FW, you had stated on another Thread that you had attended Johnston Community College (JCC) Truck Driver Training Program several years ago.

    Their Refresher Course is $95.00. I strongly suggest that you go with this option. They can help you with the opportunity to work for a good trucking company with no contract to sign.
    They can also help with job placement if you do not need the refresher.

    Have you spoken with them lately?


    I do NOT like contracts, especially for Newbies. Contracts do not provide the job security that one would think that they could/should or would offer. It can make you or break you.

    Yeah I did go back in 2003. The only problem is that I have had NO experience driving since then. I called and I do not qualify for the refresher program because I have not...

    A. Have had no experience in the last 3 years or graduated within that 3 years

    or

    B.Driven at least 12 months out of the past 5 years

    From what I understand, (and this is coming straight from the director of the program) in order to qualify you have to have graduated from a program within the last 3 years and not had any experience driving. Or if you have graduated from a program longer than 3 years ago, you have to have driven at least 12 months out of that timeframe. Unfortunately for me it was 6 years ago that I took the program.
