Celadon /"Quality Drivers" Indianapolis, IN-STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First, I recommend to all to stay away from this one, unless you enjoy sitting around and doing absolutely nothing. You will Greyhound it to the school and get picked up. A majority of the students here have either been picked up from the dregs of society or county jail, I have yet to figure that one out. They will tell you that it will take three to five weeks and then make you sign a contract that states it will be three weeks, but that is complete crap. I have been up here five weeks and you hardly get any range time. Most of the students seem to be here for the word free, but you get what you pay for. The drunken insanity, drugs and other bs is a common feature around here on the evenings and the criminal elements seem to be around frequently. If you really do not want a cdl , but want to just come to Indianapolis, hang around, not really do much, get drunk and screw around, then by all means, contact Celadon and get signed up. If you want a cdl, this is not the place to be. I am looking into another program and I advise all to pass on Celadon.

The training consists of maybe fifteen minutes or so a week practicing on the range. The claim they do not have enough instructors and the intelligent business decision would be hire more. Of course, that is not going to happen, since I think the company could very well just be using this as a tax write off. You might on occasion get another thirty minutes or so driving a truck on the road. Their training methods are suspect to put it nicely. This week they have only had one instructor for three ranges and the decision was made to let students, who really have never driven to run the ranges. That is a bit dangerous, especially when the trucks are about to jack knife, since the students do not know what they are doing. The director of the program will openly tell you if you pay him money, he will let you test out-which is pretty much bribery. I am compiling video of the major safety deficiencies and I will be sending them to the DOT.

i am suppose to attend there in 3 weeks, but im hitting one road bock after another, so im looking into pam. yes i have to leave 2 weeks later, but, i am going to have less overall school time, and a 1200 sign on bonus. my son is at quality now, and hates it. thanks for the tip

This place is incredibly sad. The "free" food is a joke to the point people have to request funds to be sent from home and others are applying for food stamps here in the state of Indiana. Others have taken to selling their plasma. Crime is a common occurrence around here, probably given the make up of about half the students here and the lack of training going on. The director of the program threatens people all the time and is insulting. It is really hard for folks to learn anything when you might get to drive, but usually not. Of course, the student body for the most part is not the most stellar individuals. If you ask to leave, they threaten your license. Again, stay away from this place.
