Objective and Philosophy |
|
Educational Objective: The School objective is to see the students who complete our program qualify to enter the trucking industry as skilled, professional drivers. Our program gives students a " hands-on" familiarity with the equipment that transportation companies use today and the professional skills and confidence that employers recognize and value |
Institutional Philosophy: We believe that training standards for tractor-trailer drivers must be as high as possible because an adequate number of well-trained drivers are critical for an effective transportation industry and for public safety. We believe further, that those high training standards can be met only with quality training programs and licensed instructors, and our instructional staff must have at least five years of over-the-road experience.
To meet those high training standards, we have developed a program which can give our graduates confidence that the training received has prepared them for entry level employment in the trucking industry. Offering a balance of classroom and laboratory instruction, workshop, and driving experience all guided by a skilled, professional staff of instructors, we designed our curriculum with the prospective student in mind, being sure that they can find the professional quality they are looking for in our programs.
