Hey Bobby, I don't work for Schneider so I can't answer you specifically. I will say that their training is always considered top notch by those of our members who went through it. Maybe someone can tell you specifically what goes on when you return to the "classroom," I would assume it's some basic orientation type stuff.
Thanks Old School , you always come around when I need something answered. What do you think I outta take out besides the basics for driving with trainer?
Bobby, glad to hear you're getting this ball rolling! Seems like it's rolling too fast now doesn't it?
We've got some resources here that are packed with information on what to take with you. Click on this link to help you understand what to take with you.
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
Also, when you are finished with your training, more than likely they will let you go by the house and get the rest of the gear you want with you on your truck before you really start getting after it.
Thank you so much Old School! Could you read my post on backing please, Sir. Like you said things are starting to roll fast and faster but in a way scary but it's also feels great!
Bobby, read CodeRed NV training diary. He went through training with Schneider and explains it all day by day. And yes, he did go back to class after being out with a trainer.
Thanks chickiemonster! That's a huge help!

My recruiter told me something different than the other schools. I would be in class then go out with trainer then come back to class. Then on the road. Is it because I already have had my cdl s for 13 years or is this just the way schneider does things? Other recruiters said class then trainer then on the road. What are we doing in class when we come back? Why not just get going?
