swift cdl school info needed

you sir are the man. keep spreading the knowledge!

 

Did you attend to earl Henderson academy, if so was it difficult to get in and what step did you have to take including their requirements

 

Henderson isn't difficult at all to get in to. If you contact the school you'll probably be in the next class. I've followed some posts on them and all are positive. 3 weeks of classroom & local driving then hit the highway with a trainer.
You need an original social security card & original birth certificate. Take a sleeping bag and pillow because you will need those when you head coast to coast with your trainer.

 

I'll give it try cause so far I've had no luck with any other companie what so ever except the one I wouldn't like to attend due to bad reviews...wish me luck cause I'm going to need it, I'll let you how things turn out.

 

I cant find any information on Earl Henderson's paid CDL (do you have a link)? Also, are they affiliated w/Prime...they have a Prime Truck on their website

 

Yes, they pull Prime trailers and haul Prime freight. They use full size trucks,not those lightweights Prime uses. Same deal with Wil-Trans.
"In October of 2015 Earl L Henderson Trucking joined with Prime Inc under their Advanced Fleet Program. Still completely family owned."
Their driving academy information is hard to navigate on the website. Click on "Resources" and the phone number is there for the school.

 

SWIFT, PAM and a few others do offer free tuition however. Henderson unfortunately does not.

 

Look at the big picture with any trucking company CDL school; none are free. The trucking companies want you to have some skin in the game; it's a trade off. No company is going to take all the risk and give the trainee a free ride; the companies want a return on their investment and rightly so.

 

When I say "free", I mean no financial cost...I realize there will be strings attached. SWIFT for example offers free tuition to veterans.
