Hello, I have questions about HME and TWIC card

I was told it would take about four weeks to get my hazmat approval and twic card but I received mine less than a week later. Not sure why but I’m not complaining!

Any words of wisdom? Suggestions?

I’m looking at Schneider and Werner also! Also Roehl and Melton seem to be good companies but I really know very little. I’m in the same boat as you!

Is Community College Training a bad idea?

Hey I’m also currently in a community college program because it was 350$ Dollars which is much less than any other I’ve seen. I didn’t know about company sponsored training before I enrolled but it’s a 16 week program and I’m 10 weeks into it so I might as well stick It out. By the time I’m done I’ll have closer to 220 hours of training. Including 10 driving trips that are two hours each. I’m glad I chose this route even though it’s taking much longer that every other program I’ve seen because I’m not sure I could learn everything in four weeks. The problem I’ve ran into is no companies will talk to me yet because I’m still more than a month out from my graduation date. The other problem is picking which company and what type of driving I want to do. I’ve looked at a lot of the resources up here and they’ve been very helpful.
