    For any of you on this thread, I drove truck for 9 years, and got out in 2000, so for my benefit i went back to school for a complete course. I live in Keene NH, I am starting my last week of a 5 week course at NTI up in Scarborough (Portland) Me. Great school, great instructors, and real good job placement, being an experienced truck driver in the past, Iam very pleased with there whole operation, you should give them a call.

    In NH, I'd say that the best program is the one at White Mountain Community College in Berlin, NH.

    I got mine the old fashioned way, but NH's community college system is top notch. When I looked into it, it was a 12 week program; since you're looking for quick.

    in at nettts now instructor mr.c is funny as hell im in the pawtucket ri campus it is kind of long but i am learning logging, he even gave me short cuts like boston to ga showed us how to use the atlas like bridge heights i like it its probably considered expensive by all means im not rich but by it taking 5 mths allows for financial aid and its accredited just to justify the 5mths thats the only way one can get financial aid its suppose to be more or less the length of a college semester

    i mean i know i took a 5mth course but it goes by quicker than you think i really didnt need it but its accredited but to say you got your class and its only 6weeks long i mean if i were hiring a driver id definately think twice about someone with 6weeks experience as opposed to 5months but anyway masshole were you working?
