Continuing Education/Non-Credit in Truck Driving
The CDL Truck Driving Program teaches students to conduct pre-trip, on-the-road, and post-trip vehicle and equipment inspections.
CDL Truck Driving
The CDL Truck Driving Program prepares you to earn your commercial driver's license and begin a new, high-demand career. Through the two concurrent courses, you will learn to conduct pre-trip, on-the-road, and post-trip vehicle and equipment inspections and gain skills in map reading, managing logbooks and cargo documentation, dispatch procedures, emergency responsibilities, and transportation agency regulations.
Students must have their CDL Learner's Permit to register for the two concurrent courses.
If a student does not have their CDL Learner's Permit, we offer an 8-week CDL Learner's Permit (CLP) Exam Preparation for $935.
Please review the Commercial Driver Skills Training Pre-Class Requirements for information to use prior to class. Complete the CDL Truck Driving (Non-Credit) Application to register and make payment to secure a slot in the class. Once completed, you will be contacted by the Reveille Commercial-Driver Training Academy (RCTA) for a pre-qualification interview.
Students must complete Professional Truck Driver 1 and Professional Truck Driver 2 to complete the program and earn their certificate. Each course is $2,943 for a total program cost of $5,886 payable upon registration, and scholarships are available.
