Florida CDL School, Inc. was established in 1999 in Bell, Florida
in order to provide training and employable skills in the field of truck driving.
Life is meant to be enjoyed. The relaxing atmosphere of the beautiful surrounding area of Florida CDL School will make your stay with us an enjoyable learning experience. Some even bring their families with them to enjoy the swimming, camping, bike riding, and natural super clear water springs. Learning CAN be fun!
Keith and I. J. Philman established the school in answer to the need for trained CDL drivers and the non-existence of schools of this type in the immediate area. The school is the realization of Keith and I. J. Philman’s dream of sharing their experience and training with others. Both were born in Bell, Florida and have dedicated themselves to working in the trucking industry for the past several years.
Florida CDL School, Inc. has a goal to provide the driver trainee with the highest level of individualized training, continuing, education, and career placement, serving to propel the student from the training environment into the career arena. The need for qualified professional tractor-trailer drivers is tremendous and there is every indication that this need will continue well into this century.
The training you will receive at Florida CDL School, Inc. is comprehensive and safety oriented. We want to convey to you the feel of the truck driver’s job. Also, we want your apprenticeship to be fun and enjoyable as you learn; in fact, these are memories that will remain with you a lifetime and you will find yourself going back to these learning experiences throughout your trucking career.
