Heading to Roehl GYCDL program on Monday!

New to the forum, want to say a quick hello to everyone. I’ve been in the application process with Roehl for the past few weeks. CLP, DOT card and drug screen completed. Orientation starts next Monday in Marshfield. Excited to get started! I haven’t seen much on here in regards to the Roehl training program for 2020. Anyone out there go through the GYCDL program this year?

 

Will do! Thank you Hazmat Cat!

Thank you guys for asking. Yes it’s been quite the journey. The first week seemed to feel the longest, with physical capacity tests, paper work, payroll ect. By the end of the second day we were in the trucks learning to idle shift ten speed manuals on a freight liner. In addition homework via the Roehl app each night amounting to 1-2 hours a night. The rest of the week, practicing the shifting. Week 2 flew by, with city driving, refining the shifting and backing off set and the 90 degree back. The third week more of the same and tested on that Wednesday. So more like a 2 week program, test on the third week. I passed my test with pretty good scores but man was it nerve racking. Still wrapping up week 3, getting ready to take a few days off at home (finally) then right into phase 2. So far so good, but it is a lot thrown at you in the beginning. I’ve posted a few updated videos on you tube. “The Vermilion Cowboy”. I’ll try and continue to update. Thanks again for checking in.
