APPRENTICE TESTIMONIALS
Charlene F. - The support I received from management, staff and fellow drivers gave me the confidence to excel in this program. I highly recommend this program for drivers looking for a career.
John P. - I found that the apprenticeship program was a precious experience being a new driver. After four weeks with an experienced driver, it gave me the learnings and confidence to continue on my own in my new career as a professional driver.
Omar L. - The apprenticeship program gave me more knowledge and practice as to what to expect as a real-life truck driver. Having a coach beside me correcting mistakes or bad habits before I drove on my own gave me the confidence and ability to drive the truck safely. The coaches continue to be there for me when I have questions to build myself into a safer professional driver. A professional truck driver continuously drives safely and respectfully to keep everyone on the road safe!
Justin B. - Going through the apprentice program helped me gain the knowledge and confidence to become a professional driver. The four to six weeks with a driving coach to ask questions and help guide you through each day was amazing, from paperwork and logbooks to learning different routes to understanding how to do a proper inspection on the truck and trailer. Overall the program benefited me greatly, and I am happy I didn't just receive a set of keys and told, here you go.
Chris K. - Being in the apprenticeship program gave me the proper skills needed to succeed in this industry. The knowledge given to me by the coaches was instrumental in allowing me to become the driver I am today.
