The Commercial Truck Driving program prepares individuals to drive trucks and other commercial vehicles. It includes instruction in operating diesel-powered vehicles, loading and unloading cargo, reporting delays or accidents on the road, verifying loads against shipping records, and keeping necessary records. CCC’s Commercial Truck Driving Program is an eight-week program that prepares students to drive tractor-trailers and other commercial vehicles. The program is a combination of classroom and actual road driving that includes Department of Transportation rules and regulations, safety, proper shifting, logbooks, preparation of paperwork, map reading, and cargo handling. Each student logs a minimum of 20 contact hours of driving time with various loads, road, and driving conditions. Students are required to pass the DOT Commercial Driver Written Examination and obtain a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). Contact School!
