    I have Driven Class A for month since I receive my CDL years ago. I have been driving mostly straight truck. I'm looking forward to driving to gain some experience. Does anyone know what companies provide the refresher course.

    Have you tried your local companies yet? Walk in, show them your license and MVR, market yourself and ask for a road test. Perhaps you can avoid joining the circus.
     
    Chinatown and The Boy Wonder Thank this.

    Most of the local companies want one year experience.

    There is a difference between Wants and Needs. A smaller company may want a certain level of experience. But what they may NEED is a driver yesterday.
     
    SOG Thanks this.
