Indian Hills Community College offers eight, six-week programs and two, nine-weekend programs to train drivers each year. Students must have a valid driver’s license and a good driving record. Applicants must be at least 18 years old. The day classes meet Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. over a six-week period, for a total of 10 college credits. The weekend classes meet from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday for nine weekends, also for 10 college credits.

The North Campus driving range consists of several miles of hard-surface pavement. Over-the-road trips are conducted during the last four weeks of the program. The training program emphasizes one-on-one instruction by professionals who have many years of experience. Students learn with modern trucks and trailers. Students successfully completing the program are awarded a certificate and will have the practical driving and operational skills necessary to safely and efficiently operate commercial motor vehicles as entry-level drivers. Under federal law, students under 21 years of age are restricted to drive in the state in which they reside.
