Congratulations Scott and Good Luck! good-luck.gif

Did they happen to tell you where you will be training? I've been wondering if they are still doing their training at KCC (Kirkwood Community College)?

I wonder, that could be a marketing thing, or perhaps they opened an in house program since I I've been there. Please post back when you find out (if you remember) I've just been wondering lately and am curious to know.

Also, they had us staying at a hotel next to a Burger King. If my memory serves correctly, I think it was a Red Roof Inn.

My recruiter said its a dorm style building.... This is from the email I got..... ( All permit testing will be done on the NADTA campus and scheduled through the Permit Safety Trainer. Please do not miss your scheduled test time as you will not be able to test until the next day. · Food is not allowed in any of the classrooms or computer labs. · Sleeping in class is not allowed at any step of the process (permit training, CDL school, or Orientation) · CRST will provide breakfast and lunch Monday thru Friday, lunch on Saturday, and pizza on Sunday afternoon. · It is expected that all assignments and quizzes are the work of the student. Any student deviating from this expectation may be removed from the program.) it doesn't say anything about kcC...
