Truck Driving Training

Truck Driving – Class A Training

CCWA is launching a new, quality 20-day program for Class A training program working with an industry leader in CDL training.  This comprehensive program will provide the skills and opportunities needed to be successful in a truck driving career.  This program assists graduates with job placement for local, regional and over-the-road positions.  Assistance with nationwide job placement is a benefit to our students and graduates.  This course will certify an individual to drive Class A commercial motor vehicles. Class A vehicles are defined as any combination of vehicles with gross vehicle weight rating.

Classes are offered Monday through Friday from 8am until 5pm for four weeks.  Part-time classes are also available and run Saturday and Sunday from 8am until 5pm for ten weekends.

While funds last, there is excellent financial assistance available to help offset the cost of high-demand certification programs.  Participants pay one-third of the cost for eligible courses.  For more information, email cdlinfo@ccwa.vccs.edu, or call (804) 706-5256.

  • Do I have to go over the road?

    Many companies are focused on more time at home for their drivers. We have opportunities in Long Distance, Regional (drive during the week, home on the weekend), and home nightly.

  • Are there still opportunities in the trucking industry?

    Although opportunities in the industry have become more competitive, everyone knows that truck driving is among the last industries affected by a stressed economy.

  • How long will it take before I can go to work?

    Individual outcomes may vary however; most students are job ready in as little as 4 weeks.

  • Does it really matter where I go to school?

    Consensus has proven over many years that when you are looking at formal training for any trade, it not only matters what you have but where you got it.

  • How do I get all the answers to my questions?
