Event Description/Abstract
The CDL application process is changing. The DOT’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) will now have a registry of approved trainers that entry-level truckers must use, Class A and Class B CDL applicants will have separate standards, and there are new requirements for certain endorsements. Potential drivers will have to wait longer to get in a truck and start making money, and for some the training will be cost-prohibitive. Join us for a discussion.
