Western Truck School

This is where I got my cdl in April 8, 2011. Great school and only 4 weeks was amazing. A month later, I was behind the wheel of a semi truck with Werner Enterprises. The staff are professionals.

Went through Western last August and got hired on with a great company after one week after acquiring my class A. Making more money than I made in the white collar cut throat rat race I was in for over a decade.

I would like to say thank you to Pearl and young George for making my experience a good one. Pearl is full of knowledge, guided me to get my school paid by placer county. Young George was a great instructor, cares about you. My experience in getting my class A was bitter sweat. I failed my 1st try in maneuvers, school said next available DMV apt was on April 27th which was 3 weeks later. That was a lie. DMV had availability the following week. I called back and asked why, then Rhonda said I had my chance. I didn't appreciate that. School is expensive and even if it came out of the county's pocket. It's still a lot of money. Be careful with Ronda. She's nice and all but she will do anything to save the company a penny and if your interest are not within her next class, she will put you on the back burner and will lie to you like she did with me. She should have been up front and explained to me that other students need time and I would have understood. I give the school a 5 star because it's a great school up until you fail your first try. If you don't fail you'll be very pleased. If you fail, you will wait about a month and by then you will be rusty. Once again, just sharing my experience.

I highly recommend Western Truck School to anyone who's looking for a truck school with awesome instructors..

If you're reading my review you must be looking for a school. Don't hesitate, I was a student at one time with no experience on operating or any knowledge about trucks, but I was willing and thrive to learn and here I am today driving and knowledge about truck. Thanks to Western Truck School.

Special thanks to my field instructors... George Wright and Kelly. These guys are best instructors out there. These instructor didn't just help me get my class A, but made me a better driver..... Had a lot of fun learning from these guys and I hope other students will have the same experience I had or better.
