Train to earn your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) and prepare for a career in the trucking industry, one of the fastest-growing industries in the country. With over 300,000 truck driving jobs available in the United States, this course is designed for students with little or no commercial driving experience.
Sussex County Community College's Truck Driver Training course, provided by the 160 Driving Academy, includes everything you need to earn a CDL and find your first job as a truck driver.
After successfully completing the four-week course, you will take the New Jersey MVC administered Class A test and receive a certificate from 160 Driving Academy and a New Jersey (or your resident state) Commercial Driver’s License. Most importantly, 160 Driving Academy will work with trucking partners to secure your job placement.
The Class B CDL allows you to drive a single vehicle 26,001 pounds or more. It also allows you to haul a trailer weighing less than 10,000 pounds. You can also earn CDL endorsements, “extra permissions” that let you operate certain types of vehicles, such as hazmat.
The type of vehicles you can drive with a Class B CDL include straight trucks, buses (city transport buses, school buses, and tour buses), segmented buses, delivery and courier trucks, concrete delivery trucks, dump trucks, garbage trucks, towing trucks, and utility repair vehicles
UNEMPLOYED/UNDEREMPLOYED
If your unemployed or underemployed, ask about special funding opportunities that may enable you to enroll in this course and obtain a CDL for no-cost through WIOA or other Governmental funding that may be available.
