October 30, 2019 Robert Lane
With classes forming weekly, now is the time to get a new career on-the-road by enrolling in the Commercial Vehicle Driving Program offered by SAGE at Indian River State College (IRSC).
Qualified drivers are in demand, and there is an abundance of employment opportunities in the commercial trucking industry today. The median annual wage for heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers is $43,680—according to the most recent data from the U.S. Department of Labor.
The Commercial Vehicle Driving program prepares students for entry-level employment as a truck driver. The program focuses on safety issues, federal rules and regulations, private one-on-one driver training instruction, acquiring class "A" CDL License, and local or over-the-road job placement. Job placement assistance is also available after completing the program.
Information sessions are held every Tuesday at 2:00 p.m. and every Thursday at 5:30 p.m. at the IRSC Indian River Academy site located at 5900 Tedder Road in Fort Pierce. For more information call 772-462-4255.
