    I recently quit driving for Central Ref. Need to know how to get my school certificate for another employer even though I haven't paid my tuition yet. I just need to prove that I received my CDLs from them. Any idea?

    As I know this from personal experience....Central is going to hold any sort of documentation you need hostage until your tuition is paid off. If you find a way, or anyone else knows of a way to get them to produce a certificate without paying off the tuition first, I'd like to know.

    Good luck.

    Have you tried... asking them for it...? Technically, it isn't your certificate until you pay for it.

    why do you need a certificate?????

    no one cares how you got your cdl. all they care is that your license says cdl.

    what job actually asks to see your certificate.

    when i went to school. we got ours upon completion of the course. before we even got our temp permits.

    This was my husband's question - we appreciate the responses.

    He needs the certificate for an amazing opportunity close to home that requires a lot more verifiable driving experience than what he has and I guess to waive that requirement, the corporate office is asking for proof that attended the CDL school there at Central rather than just walking into the DMV and getting his CDL's.

    We plan on paying the tuition once someone returns our call with how much is left to pay, but I guess he was wondering if there was a way to obtain that proof online or any ideas on what paper he could present showing he attended.

    I would call and ask. If that doesnt work, get ahold of Tony at central TDA, they are a seperate company from central, the actual school.

    Your motor vehicle record doesn't state if or where you went to a CDL school, only when you got your CDL.

    The OP needs to prove that they went to a CDL school to get the job they are looking at.

    I just got my certificate from Swift\ Central. Your loan is now being handled through Swift. They have a student loan dept. I tried Central, but nobody seemed to know the procedure. Actually Swift was very nice and got my Certificate to me in a couple weeks. And yes, you'll have to pay it off first.
