Our course equips students with the skills required by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to obtain a Class B CDL with a Passenger Endorsement. Upon completion of truck driver training, students will be prepared to pass their Virginia Class B CDL driving exam. CDS trains in small, hands-on groups to ensure students are properly qualified. Our truck driver training course prepares students for employment as a Class B Truck Drivers. CDS also offers students one-on-one Job Placement Assistance and works closely with companies to get you hired! Please note, a Class B license does not allow you to drive a Class A vehicle, like a semi-tractor trailer. For that type of license please refer to our Class A Training.
