Where to Apply for Paid CDL Training
So after reading through this you have decided that truck driving is the career path you wish. Of course everyone’s personal situation is different, so for a variety of reasons, you decided a paid CDL training program is the best choice. Congratulations, but now what?
Well, you can spend hours and hours researching companies on the web. You can speak with people in chats rooms, read company reviews, and all the same steps you would for any career path. Fortunately I took the time to put a short list together for you in one of my previous articles, just click here: 10 Best Free Truck Driving Schools.

Conclusion
So, as you can see, there are some issues to consider when pursuing a career as a professional truck driver. But don’t let that worry you. This can be a great and rewarding career. There aren’t too many jobs these days that will provide training, especially not a paid one! Attending a paid CDL training program will give you something that can benefit you, no matter where your future takes you.
Being a truck driver is one of the few jobs/careers that give you real freedom. Your cab is your office. You choose your routes. You choose when to stop. Ok, perhaps that is too optimistic. The dispatcher will give the location (sometimes the route as well). Government regulations have set the amount of time you can drive before needing to take a break.
But it is still one of the freest jobs in America today. Like I said you don’t have to worry about lunch and coffee break schedules. You get to see the country and visit places you only dreamed of. This of course depends on the company you work for and such.
If you get picked up by a company that only does local daily runs, well you might not see the country but you’ll be home every night. If you don’t care about that then hooking up with a long distance company is the way to go. Some are regional and some cover the entire nation, perhaps even trips to Canada or up to Alaska! Whatever you do, always make the best of it. You’ll get memories to last a lifetime.
What other questions do you have? Did you already attend training? Was it paid CDL training or did you cover the cost?
Share your thoughts and remember: The open road is waiting for you! The world can be your leaving room!
