CDL Training - Driver Program Course Details

The tractor/trailer driver program at ATDS is a complete, comprehensive Class A CDL course stressing safety and professionalism. The course involves textbook lessons, classroom sessions, and behind-the-wheel driving on both our private training range and public highways. Our fleet of modern training equipment is second to none.

You'll be training on equipment as you see on the road every day. Even if you have never driven a stick shift before, the professional staff of ATDS instructors has the skills and proven methods to help you learn. ATDS even has automatic trucks for those who would prefer that option.

We have been in business since April 1990. Our CDL school has efficiently and safely trained thousands of truck drivers, and we take pride in our trainers, facilities, equipment, and instruction. Come see for yourself!
