Become Part of an Essential Industry.
The commercial truck driving industry is not only vital to a thriving economy, it is a vital part of our everyday lives. J-Tech Institute’s 4- or 8-week Commercial Truck Driving and CDL Program is helping students acquire the skills necessary to prepare for the Class “A” Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) Examination and to launch successful careers as commercial truck drivers.
The United States of America is a big place. It’s no wonder that it takes a dedicated network to move goods and materials from one end to the other. This network is so huge in fact that it employs over 2 million truck drivers nationwide.* Are you ready to join this essential network?
The Commercial Truck Driving program curriculum at J-Tech is designed to meet the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) guidelines and includes third-party testing, a Workplace Readiness Seminar that provides assistance with resumé development, interview techniques, and other employment-related support.
