Class A Commercial Driver License Training- Topeka

Instructional Program (CIP)

Description

The Mission of the school known as White Line CDL Training is to educate
future truck drivers in the State and Federal laws, requirements, the
rules that govern the industry, and to insure the teaching of safe
drivers. The graduates of this program are qualified to be licensed by
the state for operation of commercial motor vehicles. ENROLLMENT
REQUIREMENTS Enrollment is open to any Kansas resident over the legal
age of 18 who holds a valid Kansas driver’s license and can obtain a
Kansas Commercial Drivers License Learners Permit (CDL IP). Applicants
must be able to read, write and understand English as stated in the
Federal law, and must be of good moral standing with no recent criminal
convictions. The Department of Transportation requires a DOT physical
and UA which is done at the beginning of the class. CLASS SCHEDULES New
classes begin every 5 weeks, excluding holidays. The program is five
weeks in length, or after the successful completion of 180 hours of
training. Classes begin at 8 am and end at 4:30 pm Monday through Friday
with a half-hour lunch. TUITION AND ENROLLMENT Course: Truck Driver
Training for Driving of Commercial Vehicles Cost: $2,650 for complete
program including books, supplies, and the cost of the DOT physical and
UA. Other Costs: Student is responsible for costs of learning permits
from the State of Kansas and the cost of the actual CDL license and any
endorsements from the State of Kansas. The school requires the complete
cost of the program be paid in full before the last week of class or
final completion of the program. CURRICULUM AND JOB PLACEMENT In this
program the student will attend 45 to 90 classroom hours of training
which will include presentations from the Department of Transportation,
BNSF, learning the regulations required of federal motor carriers, how
to accurately keep daily logs and become familiar with the equipment of
the trade. The driving training will include range driving, defensive
driving, basic road skills and backing skills. While this is a brief
outline of the skills that will be taught, White Line CDL Training
strives to teach professionalism. We hope that no matter how many miles
the student has driven after their graduation their actions will always
reflect back on what the driving school has taught them. During the
program, the school will have commercial trucking companies come to the
school for recruitment purposes. The school or instructors in no way
guarantee employment to any student. Students will be informed of
companies that are hiring if the school has been informed of such opportunities.
