Learning to do a logbook

Thats right, There job is to teach you what you need to know to get a CDL. When you get hired on with a company it will be the job of your trainer to teach you how to do a log book. You most learn to walk before you run.

 

True. But a good school will cover the basics.

Community College training actually provides a more in depth study of the log book.

 

Can't dis-agree with this. But we have to deal with what is not what should have been.

 

Go to the FMCSA website or go to a fuel stop and get the FMCSA pocketbook or buy it online at J.J. Keller . Ordering online could take a few weeks if they are working on a new edition .

 

The school I and my hubby went to (almost 9 years apart time-wise) gives their students a good, basic understanding of log books and doing them right.

 

Just Remember, School will teach you the theory, but practice comes from a job...

 

You should go through logbook stuff in orientation. Your trainer will help make sure you know how to do your logbook, and once you go solo, you can always double check things with the logs department. The company should be willing to help make sure you do things right.

 

Ooo I got a funny log pic, I'd post but hate to trash a fair question type thread this early. LOL

 

So you want to be different ? I've seen threads trashed on the first post .
