The CDL-A program is designed to teach you safe operating procedures, and give you a working knowledge of the industry. As a student, you’ll get practice behind-the-wheel at our driver training yards. And both country and city driving environments. You can become a licensed driver with 160 hours of logged training. You’ll also have the opportunity to train for endorsements in air brakes, hazardous materials (optional), tankers, and doubles/triples. CDL school graduates are prepared for licensure through the State of Maine’s Department of Transportation.
