Yeah W & S has suspended their school UFN. As far as I know, Werner doesn't have "in house" training per se, they have some kind of deal worked out with Roadmaster here in Cali anyway, a 16 day program then out with a trainer or, so they say.
Central has a couple of schools, SLC and, Riverside CA maybe more. System Transport in Washington state is hooked up with a local school but I don't know how their arrangement works.

Just wondering whats wrong with Squire? I never really heard anything bad about them.

It's the affiliation with Knight Transportation that rubs me the wrong way. When I first began looking at carriers, Knight was an obvious carrier for me to look at as they have a drop yard about 10 minutes from my home (Gulfport MS). I tried to get positive responses from Knight drivers here on the forum but did not succeed. To date, I've not found much in the way of redeeming qualities in Knight. Maybe I'm just a hardhead....no, I am a hardhead!

if you are serious about getting in trucking , I encourge you to get your cdl training at a local community college that is accepted by most all major carriers. thats what I did and currently drive for Roehl. If the up front cost of a community college is a issue then you are at the carriers mercy no matter who it is. I can tell you this roehl may not be the best ( IMO no one is) but by far they are not the worst !

The community college route has been an option from Day 1 and probably is the best option. I was accepted at 2 local community colleges late last year. I'm just trying to use the time I have left before I must make a final decision to look at everything....again. I'm the world's worst about belaboring an issue, but this one is huge for me in that I'm looking at this career move as the last one I'll make before I retire. Roehl is an option but I'd have to move into their hiring area so I'd have to be #### sure it, going with Roehl, is a solid choice. Thanks very much for your input!!
