MADISON, FL (Sept. 20, 2021) - North Florida College is gearing up to begin a new
Commercial
Vehicle Driving class in January that can help students quickly gain the knowledge
and skills required to become a safe and successful member of the trucking industry.
During the 12-week program, NFC’s experienced instructors share insights from the
road and teach valuable concepts related to operating a tractor-trailer and earning
Commercial Driver’s License-Class A (CDL) certification. Students learn to drive on
various terrains, practice driving during the day and at night, and have exposure
to timber trucking through partnerships with area logging companies. The class meets
on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
New CDL Student Orientation Sessions are planned for Sept. 27 and 29 at 2 p.m. and October 5 and 7 at 9 a.m. Anyone interested
in taking NFC's CDL class is encouraged to attend one of the sessions. Register online
