Includes 18 hours of classroom instruction and 10 hours of behind-the-wheel training. (Does NOT include cost of DOT physical exam or cost of CDL license.) An instructor will make arrangements with individual students to schedule behind-the-wheel training once a learner’s permit is obtained, and accompany the student to the DMV for the CDL exam to be administered. Note: Readiness to take the CDL exam will be at the instructor’s discretion; additional drive time may be needed and may be purchased in 5-hour blocks.

Students who have earned a CDL-A instructional permit or want to upgrade from CDL-B to CDL-A must attend one classroom session (usually held the second Saturday of the course) before starting behind-the-wheel training. Cost: $850.
