In order to become a class A truck driver (a category that includes almost all tractor trailers), you’ll need to earn your Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). In order to receive CDL certification, you will have to pass the state exam.

160 hours of training might sound like a lot, but with 160 Driving Academy, you can finish our program in just four 40 hour weeks. We also offer night and weekend classes for students who have jobs and other obligations during the day.

For most students, CDL training is extremely affordable. 160 works with many leading trucking companies who are willing to cover 100% of a student’s tuition if he or she meets certain requirements and accepts a job after graduation. We’re here to help make your education as affordable as possible.

Absolutely! The average commercial truck driver makes $50,340* a year.

160 will prepare you for your written exam with 40 hours of classroom instruction. You will also have 120 hours behind the wheel, driving on Local and Interstate roads and learning by observing other students.

Absolutely! We can prepare you for the double/triple or HazMat written exams. Getting an endorsement in addition to your CDL can greatly increase your salary and job prospects.

We surely do offer financing for the class if you are financially strapped at this time. If you qualify as a candidate you can start your class no money down, payments start 2 months after enrollment as low as $140 per month. Many of our client’s employer pays for this option as added job benefit.
