TMC
Topic 515 | Page 4
Hello i am also working with dawn. About the cdl program. I start class jan 25th at tmc to obtain my cdl. Its a 3 week program. The cdl class and orientation is all compressed in that 3 week class. I have to commit to tmc for 12 months which is no problem as i plan on working there for a while.
So basically, the cdl school will be in Des Moines? Which is fine by me. My wife already said she can hold the house down while I am away.

I've been working with Tracey and sounds like I took the same offer as you. I'm in the class starting on the 25th as well.

Really sucks that I couldn't get into class. Hopefully after a while I will reapply to TMC. Finally got my class A through my current company so I'll give it some time so I can get some driving time under my belt. This is the company I really have my eye on. All the benefits are what I want. Have fun and be safe.
Really like what I'm hearing and reading about this outfit . They kinda remind me a bit of my military training in so far as the attitude and style in the cdl program . I am definitely most interested in flatbed and the challenge and unique opportunities that go with it . This definitely looks like a great place to start and grow .

I'm also looking at TMC as well. Got my app in a few days ago looking to see about joining that Jan 25 th class. It's sad that I have a class B and had a permit for my A but my company gave me empty promises about letting me earn my A. I inquired about TMC last year around this time and I could of been apart of there very first training Class for the class A but the time was not right. Maybe this time will go as planned!!!
