Orientation starts on Mondays. So it depends on when you finish up at C1. I finished on Friday of the 3rd week and was the end of the month so I was delayed about a week. Students in my class that finished on Thursday were in the orientation a week ahead of me. I wouldnt expect it to be over a couple of weeks from C1 to orientation. After orientation they willget you with the first available trainer cuz they are paying you 50 bucks a day whether you are sitting at the motel or if you are with a trainer. Some guys in my class left with their trainer the same day orientation was over. I had to take a bus from Van Buren to West Memphis to meet up with my first trainer. So it was 2 or 3 days for me bfore I started driving. Then again there was another guy that was in the orientation before mine that had to wait over a week. They match trainer and student occording to smoking preference so alot depends on what trainer happens to be available. You will either have one trainer the whole time and have varied runs or have two trainers. With two trainers you have varied runs the first week then switch to a different trainer and run a dedicated account for the remainder of your training hours. Just pray you get a good trainer or trainers that you get along with. My first trainer was cool and we got along great. The second........well........lets just say it was a challenge. Good luck!x_nail_driver Thanks this. -
