Looking at roadmaster myself, can you give me the scoop on the school, I would have to go to West Memphis for training.

Attended roadmaster here in tampa, and they have a pretty cheezily-run outfit. I have nothing positive to say about them other than the instructors...which I thought the majority were rather knowledgeable and capable during what I think is an incredibly nerve-wracking experience for three weeks. The company, however, is concerned about bringing in that $5,000 per student and couldn't care less about much else. The presentations and materials were terribly below par, and the facilities were dirty and in great need of upgrading. There was no consistency in how we were treated by staff members in terms of how we were to do PTI's and I would've liked to have stayed with one truck the entire training period, including the all-important road test...and instead they stick the three guys in my road test group in the lousiest rig on the lot. Also, class sizes here were of a range from mine (16) to the one before (33)...so how can you adequately get in enough practice time with such poor student/instructor ratios like that? As it was, I greatly needed much more practice, but that was impossible. Class sizes should be held to 12 max.
Anyway, I digress. Your school there might be worlds away in differences from mine. Find out if you have a community college or vo-tech...it's much cheaper and you'll have more time to get acclimated to the equipment. Research this before you part with $5,000. Good luck to you. -
FFE is now with Prime Inc. now, aren't they?
-
They are with Lisa too. -
According to the recruiters they are not together. I like the look of both trying to make up my mind now on witch one to go with for cdl training and also they are in direct competition with each other. Prime has taken the lead with top refer company over ffe and Stevens but this is just based on me talking with the recruiters. So it could all be b.s. -
Also anyone with useful info on ether of them let me know all help would be great.

Lisa is FFE's Reefer company so if you want to pull reefers you should ask FFE about Lisa.
