Premier CDL Training offers truck driver training classes at their Granite City, Illinois location. Their classes combine classroom instruction with on-the-road training. They partner with many national trucking companies that have tuition reimbursement programs. Most importantly, the majority of Premier's students have a job before finishing school.
As a veteran you may be eligible to use your GI bill to help pay for your tuition and to provide additional assistance while you are training. Additionally, some carriers are members of the Military Apprenticeship Program. With this program you may be eligible to earn a monthly educational benefits check along with your weekly salary from your new job. For some veterans this could be as much as $1,400 additional each month. So, military veterans who qualify could earn up to $85,000 their first year as a professional truck driver.
Premier works with several top trucking companies who will help pay for your CDL training with tuition reimbursement programs. Agreeing to work for one of these companies will not only help you qualify for a tuition loan, the companies will actually pay the majority of the loan for you.
