Overview
A truck driving school experience like no other

We have been preparing students for over three decades, making us the longest-running CDL school in Virginia. With more than 25,000 graduates, our results speak for themselves. Originally established in Woodford, we have steadily expanded our operations and recently opened a new training location in Suffolk.
Check your eligibility for zero-dollar grants or tuition reimbursement to help fund your education.
As a private driving school, we take a thoughtful approach to training. Rather than rushing students through a high-pressure boot camp, our instructors draw on decades of industry experience to help you master the material and build your practical skills at a steady pace. By graduation, you will be fully prepared to step into the field as a safe, dependable entry-level professional.
