Can't say enough about this place. Staff is great . Safety is number one priority . Couple days in classroom and paperwork . Then couple more on simulators, yard skills and testing. All testing is basically just to identify your weak points for trainer to work on with you. Most testing is not pass or fail. Unless you can not drive, you will go forward. But you must pass physical. Now that all that is behind me, I wait for assignment to trainer , then on road for 275 hours of my drive time . Complete that you must pass test then go solo P/s... Drug test did not pull hair

That's great to hear. I'm currently in CDL school with a graduation date of early February. I'm really interested in Werner right now, basically because they match what me and my husband put in our Need/Want list. I haven't committed to anything and am currently looking into other companies just in case I need a back up plan. Good luck continuing on with them.

CDL:

Commercial Driver's License (CDL)

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:

  • Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
  • Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.
