    I am looking at schools and I called NETTS to find out how many actual driving hours are in their CDL partime course. All I got was someone trying to persuade me to meet with an admissions rep in my house who would determine if I was a good fit for the school ! I work long crazy hours and at this time I am just not available for such an interview. I just want to assess which school would be best for me and then decide to quit all my various jobs and dedicate myself to that school. Please, someone help me with this info- how many actual hours of driving time do the students get?
