High Road Training Program

How long (hours) should it reasonably take to complete all the modules in the High Road Training Program?

The short answer is probably about 40-80 hours, depending upon a number of factors.

The long answer is that a lot of that depends on how careful you are about looking up the answers instead of guessing at the ones you're unsure of.

The way the High Road Training Program is designed, it will track your score on every question, every page, throughout the program including the review questions you'll see from previous pages. If you get a certain question wrong a certain percentage of the time or your overall score falls below 85%, you'll be halted. What that means is you won't be able to continue on to new materials until you show an improvement in the areas you're struggling with. So you'll be given review questions in sets of 8 until you score well enough to lift the halt and continue on to new materials.

So the more careful you are about looking up the answers and getting every question right, the fewer times you'll be halted, and the faster you'll get through the program.

Now the nice thing is you can always look up the answer to every question quickly without leaving the page. If the question is from that page, you can scroll up and find the answer. If the question is a review question from a previous page, you'll see a button that says "Click here to look up the answer" and when you do, the content that contains the answer will appear. So it's always very fast and easy to look up the answers and get the questions correct.

By structuring the program this way it gives you a nice amount of repetition to help memorize the answers without allowing you to guess your way through or even worse - get a lot of answers wrong so you're reinforcing the wrong information.

The system is highly effective. There are even some truck driving schools that use it in their classroom straight off our website. It's really that good.

I'm working on the High Road Training Program now just wanted to say its great Brett.

Glad you like it! You're gonna love it after you get done breezing through your CDL written exams!

I like the program. I should have started it last week.

@Andrew, Because everyone has a different style of learning, the way a person studies will differ, too. With the no-advance-until-mastered safety embedded within the program, if you can make it through at least once without getting halted you should do fine.

Here's what I did:

I started about 6 months ago while I was working another job. Once the job was over and I had my time free I buckled down and spent full 9 hour work days on the program. It took about a week to finish out the program on the first run and I was halted about 4 times. Side-note -- I've never been up close and personal with a CMV. This was/is all new to me. So I used google images... ALOT! I also asked questions on the forum here. The Experienced Drivers here are really nice. One of them even posted an image for me when I couldn't find a good one! A recommendation was provided to head down to my local truckstop, too. I thought that was a wonderful idea, until I discovered my 'local' truckstop was about 30 miles away. So I saved on gas and kept googling whatever extra info I felt would help me understand, including the DOT.gov site AND a firefighter training site pertaining to HAZMAT loads. The second week I reset and ran the program again. This took about 3 days and I was only halted once. Then I began running only the sections I would encounter on the CDL exam. I reset, ran through the questions without reading the material except for when I didn't know the answer. I did this process until I could run through the chosen sections consecutively without getting halted and without having to check for an answer. That process took about 3 days. I still missed some answers, but I didn't get halted. Then I took the exam with all the tests (General knowledge, Air brakes, Combinations, Tankers) in one shot. After the grueling study sessions I ran myself through, the exam itself was a breeze

Girl....you are a focused individual !!!!! I can't even re read a book I've read years ago. To keep going thru the tests would drive me over the edge !!! But it paid off for you, and I'm sure that all the knowledge has been imbedded forever in your grey matter.
