Has anyone here attended International Trucking School in Canton, Michigan? Or, for that matter, any of their schools in Michigan. I'm just starting to do my research of companies and schools. At first, company training seemed to me like a no-brainer because of costs but now I'm thinking a school might be a better situation for me. International offers part time and evenings for those of us who need to continue to work, not to mention the Canton location is not far from me at all and I would prefer to stay in Michigan for training. I also like the idea that I'm not beholden to the company that's paying for my training and hopefully I'll have a greater number of companies to choose from when the time comes. As far as paying for training, I'm not averse to a student loan; I'm not crazy about it but ya do what ya gotta do.
Anyway, all unvarnished opinions of International Trucking School, both good and bad, will be appreciated.
