Welcome Dave!
Is there a list of company sponsored CDL schools on this site!?
Yes there is.
You can also apply to a bunch of company-sponsored programs at one time with one super short form right here on TruckingTruth and hear from recruiters today without any obligation:
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
A Company-Sponsored Training Program is a school that is owned and operated by a trucking company.
The schooling often requires little or no money up front. Instead of paying up-front tuition you will sign an agreement to work for the company for a specified amount of time after graduation, usually around a year, at a slightly lower rate of pay in order to pay for the training.
If you choose to quit working for the company before your year is up, they will normally require you to pay back a prorated amount of money for the schooling. The amount you pay back will be comparable to what you would have paid if you went to an independently owned school.
Company-sponsored training can be an excellent way to get your career underway if you can't afford the tuition up front for private schooling.

Hello, First of all, I love this website/forum. Much better than others i have seen! So, Thank you TT. My story in a nutshell. I go my CDL back in 2008. Hauled crude oil for 3 months, but got downsized... Got a job driving Class B trucks, up until April of this year. And during that time went to a company sponsored CDL A training school (as a refresher) wnet OTR , stayed on for 2 months, but had to come off road for family issues. Long story short I have a great driving record, Some CDL OTR experience, but moslty CDL B work. I am really wanting to get back into CDL A OTR work. I will continue to read this site, and take any advice available. Stay safe out there! And keep on trucking!! Is there a list of company sponsored CDL schools on this site!? Thanks!
