Can the driving school you attend make a difference?

Look, the school you attend will only impact your entry-level opportunities. Five years into this profession, I don't even list the subpar truck school I attended. All of your respectable experience will be gained on the job. With that said, the best and most reputable school will have the best entry-level connections. If you go to a disreputable school you can still find a good opportunity, you will simply be given more "no" answers initially. After 6 months, the truck school you attend is all but irrelevant. After 1 year, forget about it. After 2 years, don't even list it unless it was someplace spectacular.

 

I know schneider has a preferred list but which schools i dont know

 

I went to a pretty good skool.

 

Oh...School...Smoool...The Real Question is "Were you Paying Attention? I attended CRST...so,Yes..."Im Basically Self Taught"...Lol.Most schools teach you just enough ...TO BE DANGEROUS". AT Least for Me...It was about "Survival"...And Keeping a CDL and a Job"? If it meets the standard 160 hours...you should be ok.You "Never Stop Learning". Im 12 years into it Now...Still Learning.JMO

 

Thats sad, you chose a bad school.
