So leaving a review is what gets this school to respond. It's been over a week plus another week of miscommunication. Again no answered phone calls and no emails back from this school that's happy and fast to take your phone but not give it back. I shouldn't have to write a bad but truthful review to get an update. This school is ridiculous and unprofessional!

I didn't have really much experience with office, but most of instructors are friendly and helpful. Also, the real reason for the five stars it's for The examiner, they were very helpful and they instructed me perfectly with out stressing me out. Special khalil one of the examiners, he was very nice, good customer service, And excellent attitude. I'm so happy to get my Cdl from this school, and I like to thank you jp my advisor from the office.

I called this place at least 40 times and each time I get the run around. I heard lots of good things about this school is the reason I tried to register. I filled out the credit app and paid $100 deposit 3weeks later I heard nothing. I called back again to check status no answer. So I sent email asking for my money back they sent it in a check which is fine.

Honestly feel like we deserve our CDLs one way or another paying $4K+ For instructors to show us ONE thing ONE time then literally sit in the shade and tell us to learn among each other I'm out in the sun stressing about something I have no idea about even when you ask them they just wanna yell and point instead of giving real step by step instructions, can you guys please have different instructors who will sit in the cab 1 on 1 as we learn new moves I invested my very last bits of money into this career you guys are very ok because you got your money at the end of the day and I need to pass within 2 weeks with the little information they giving I shouldn't have to go home and beg YouTube for tips this is a school correct?

STAY AWAY. As other reviews say as well. I went to this school a couple of months ago. I want to start with, the instructors are great they do there job completely. It's the people in the office who are the problem. The recruiters LIE to you to get you to sign up saying thing like receiving individualized training, specialized training and more.
This school well teach you the bare minimum, it is simply to pass the road test, barley. In my class the first 6 students to take there test all failed the first time. To add on, the yard is muddy, full of pot holes. Expect to get stuck multiple times a day during wet seasons. They are also packing the classes with students and there is no organization for who gets to use the trucks, just a bunch of people standing around waiting for one to open.
To add on you spend all of your time in the yard, you only get to go out in the truck 5 times (in total) on the road for less then 30 minutes each time. The trucks also barley work, they have fleet mechanics there everyday because they are constantly breaking down. If there is one thing I can recommend to anyone getting there cdl it is to go through any other option expect this school.

Wish I could leave more stars. The instructors are awesome, very professional and highly educated to teach. How ever the equipment is horrible. The trailers are not working properly glad hands broken, axle seals are trash and the trucks in the same condition. The manual truck for the road time has issues the hood latches are not seating properly and are barely holding the hood down. There's too many students to instructors.

The school's got a very good training strategy and studying material. All trainers do a great job and are always willing to help and answer any questions you may have throughout your whole learning process. They fill you up with tips that help you maneuver the tractors in an easier way and for an easier understanding of the vehicle's part and inspection to ensure that you walk up to that final test with great confidance. Strongly recommend for anyone looking to start a trucking career!

After months of hesitation I finally decided to attend this school to obtain my CDL license, Which I haven't gotten yet because I'm still a student. But it was my best decision that I could make. Is this place a little beat up? Yes! But that's the charm of it. A good truck driving school doesn't need fancy equipment to teach you to drive, it need good instructors, and this place has that! Phil, Bill, and Josh are great instructors I didn't think I could drive manual or back up a big truck but these guys go above and beyond to make sure you know what you are doing! The office ladies are wonderful people very attentive and helpful. Thank You CDL School for teaching me how to become a good driver!

Very unorganized and unprofessional atmosphere. The woman running the office has an ugly demeanor and attitude. She really has no business being in her position. Not much courtesy or respect from some of the staff. Even the instructors feel frustration with the staff in the office. Was left feeling scammed. Not worth the money. I feel bad for the good people that work there.
A lot of discontinuity. Many cases of the right hand doesn't know what the left is doing. Very little structure and format. I think the instructors do the very best they can with the resources they're forced to use. The building was grungy and in need of updating. The classroom is dank. I seriously don't know how they take any pride in their business.
A lot of smoke and mirrors. I hope this isn't the standard in the trucking industry. I consider myself to be a fair and sincere person and wouldn't bash anyone who didn't deserve it but I feel people walking into this "school" shouldn't expect much. To say the least I'm very disappointed. If not for the few good people that work there and my own perseverance I would have feared for my success. Good luck to all who enroll. It should be your last resort.

I attended the CDL School after attending another School for a couple of months. The staff and instructors are phenomenal. I was impressed by the training I received. I was given instructions and allowed time to practice the information. The key to gaining as much knowledge as you can is just listen and talk with the instructors to ensure you understand the information that is given.
You really have to be present in the moment. The CDL School prepared me to safely operate a tractor trailer. The training you will recieve at The CDL school will allow you to do more than just pass a test to get your CDL.

Great school, lead instructor Ed is great can teach anyone to drive, trucks are nice except one of the really old ones. But you can't expect to teach people on brand new trucks. When you take the course, show up on time be prepared to learn, if you listen they can teach you everything quickly and you will be driving in no time!

I called a month in advance of my road test to schedule a lesson and was waiting to hear back from them on the day to schedule. I did not hear back for 2 weeks so I called and was once again told it wouldn't be a problem but they would call back and get my CC. Called the morning of the day before my road test and they told me they couldn't accommodate me and that I should have called sooner. I was going to pay them $250 for a 2 hour lesson in my Truck. Road tests take over a month to schedule, and I need my CDL for my Job. Extremely unprofessional.
