Shippers' Choice - CDL Training School

Experiencia fantástica: You get out of it what you put into it. Yes the organization has a few challenges and equipment goes in and down. The experience was adequate enough to learn and train. I passed the all 3 sections of the test on the first attempt. This was a reflection on their efforts and mine.

Experiencia negativa: I came in to the office ask a direct question, what was the price of the CDL classes? , they would not tell me a price. However one of my shipmates came in and to discuss the price and the seem very interested and over charging his VA . Military stay away from this place and go to Thomas Nelson or one of the other schools in the area were they have upfront pricing . They seem more interested in taking advantage of Military.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to go to get your class a cdl! My class was really big. But the instructors pulled through and made sure everyone got enough seat time. This school only works if you work it. Dexter, Rachel and John were truly amazing instructors!

Experiencia positiva: I’ll give this place 3 stars and let me explain. There are good instructors there like Todd being the best to me because he gives it to you like it’s gonna be on test day. John is cool for the range but riding with him in the truck is nerve racking and he will make you mad with his way of teaching. Lorenzo is cool and will have you understanding what you are doing, He also is a super trucker that knows it all lol. Kristen is also good and teaches you the right way. As far as the equipment… Every truck is old and all manual and they each drive different so keep that in mind when you doing maneuvers, road time as well as TEST DAY. Depending on your class size, you will not get many chances to drive or maneuver the truck so take every chance you get serious. You are practicing on their range which is in the back on dirt(not asphalt). The place is very unorganized so understand that and you will see. They have practice days for students who already graduated and waiting to test out, they will put them into your class and take some of you alls time as there are only 3 working truckings for however many in the class. Other than that you will learn and remember to take everyday serious. Study your pretrip and incab EVERYDAY! Last but NOT LEAST, Your last day in class they will ask everybody for their permits and D.O.T. Card and have you sign your signature on their iPad BUT its only showing the signature bar….. Ask to read what you are signing because without reading what it is, you think it is some graduation info and IT IS NOT. It’s you signing saying that you don’t need further testing and that shippers choice is not forcing you to take the test. It was weird how they presented it like that and basically saying they are done with you and you can’t do nothing about it even if you are not ready to test out. Your whole class will be happy its their last day and you get caught up thinking you’re signing some type of grad papers(wrong). I felt manipulated when I saw what i actually signed so be careful and read what you’re signing. It must be some type of law where you can get your money back if you feel you were slighted and ain’t have enough time in the truck range/road wise because they try to get you to sign that without reading it. Good luck

Experiencia negativa: Do not recommend it,
