    Hello all.

    Okay, does anyone have any info on Schneider training in Fontana, CA.? How long is it? Where is it held? If you live within a few miles of the facility where is being done at, are you allowed to go home after class, or is it like 7/24 "bootcamp"?

    Not sure about that location, but Schneider's standard training is a week of orientation at an operating center followed by 2 weeks of over the road training with a TE. After you do your 2 weeks with a TE you go back to the Op Center for SQT's (skill qualification test). After that round of tests you get a truck. If you don't mind driving yourself to and from you should be able to go home nightly if you want. I don't know much about this phase of training since I'm not an OSR, but I am a TE (Training Engineer) so if you have questions about that phase of training hit me up.
