How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
We have many unique differences that separates us from "other truck-driving schools". We train with loaded equipment. We use well-maintained equipment. We do not test our own students. We only hire instructors with 20+ years of experience. We teach the PTDI-certified 148 hour course. We have a 99.5% CDL Test pass rate. We have a 100% job placement rate. We are a "driver-mentorship” school, NOT a "driver-mill" school. We are professional. We will never train a student to "just pass the CDL Test". Our top priority is quality CMV safety training resulting in putting safer drivers on the highways of America. We care very much about our students. We are a quality training CMV facility.
