Best bet is to ask your recruiter.
Do I need to have a CDL permit prior to attending training at Covenant?

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
In other schools you need that permit, your medical card and your license to even get a seat in class.
When are you scheduled to start? Once you've studied up for your training program (see High Road CDL Training Program to study), you could conceivably get the papers done in a day or two.
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
For those training at Prime's Springfield, MO terminal , they don't need their permit or DOT med card since you have to get those through their school & then transfer your CDL to your home state once you've passed your testing. So I'd do as Danielsahn suggests & ask your recruiter. Do take advantage of the High Road training material. It'll make your life easier when taking your CLP test. Also, Daniel B's pretrip will help you identify the different components of the truck & give you visual aids that'll also help on your test. Good luck!
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
A department of the federal executive branch responsible for the national highways and for railroad and airline safety. It also manages Amtrak, the national railroad system, and the Coast Guard.
State and Federal DOT Officers are responsible for commercial vehicle enforcement. "The truck police" you could call them.
Before getting their CDL, commercial drivers will receive their commercial learner's permit (CLP) upon passing the written portion of the CDL exam. They will not have to retake the written exam to get their CDL.
