No I didn’t! I have Millis lined up but didn’t know if there may be better opportunities that I’m missing lol

Seriously, most paid training companies are similar. IMHO, Prime has the LONGEST training, SNI (Schneider) the shortest (less Trans Am.)

Millis is right in the middle; good choice, IMHO! As is, CFI. You could also look into Witte Bros. , a little known 'gem' of mine, haha! Put your location in your profile; would help usn's help YOU! :)

Did ya do this? : Apply For Paid CDL Training

Updates? Mountain Matt got 'spiffy' with Daniel B.'s pretrip, and had it printed & bound at Office Max!

(He won't sell me one, though...) ~~~~~Just kidding, Matt!

Best wishes; stop back!

You and your binder-jealousy are hilarious, Anne! I'm not "selling" you something that our dear Daniel B and TT made available for free on here! And you can print and bind one up for yourself from OfficeMax just as easy/easier than I could send you one! Lol.

Now let me go back to reading my nicely-bound document... rofl-2.gif

Haven't been on the site for a couple of weeks winding down the with the old job, getting moved to a new home, studying some pre-trip material, and planning a get away after Christmas. I'm excited to get going next month and got the update email from Millis today making sure I had provided everything required on my end. It's going to be an interesting journey.

BTW, Joel, I had my construction company before teaching and coaching. LOL Well, that's a little misleading, I installed commercial low voltage electric systems on new construction projects. See you in a few weeks!

Awaiting; hope you had GREAT holidays, too!
