Easiest is to find a place that has both Class B and Class A if they offer training.
I worked at one place years ago that trained me on Class B (bobtail delivery truck) so I was able to get that license and then work on my Class A. I ended up leaving that company before I got my Class A (went back to school to get my A&P License) Having the Class B was a good thing since at the time getting a job in the aircraft field was tough so I got a job as a cement truck driver, I just had to take a test to carry liquids and pass that at the DMV) No idea about the schools, if anything like some of the other "job" training schools, they are great for taking your money and stringing you along for more money offering this and that...hopefully for a truck driver they are more honest. I don't miss driving as a professional that much anymore, I like being home everyday and not being out in the elements as I had to deal with being the cement truck driver or delivery driver. Good luck. |
