Best Trucking School for Job Seekers pivoting into New Career

I just completed the 160 Driving Academy program and passed my driving test today. My previous career was working in the technology sector as a Talent Acquisition Leader for 18 years, but was displaced during the Covid pandemic. I decided to make a career pivot into the growing market in the trucking industry and after researching schools, I chose 160 Academy. From the start, Amanda Corolla was able to quickly process me into the next open class and I found that the Testing preparation was thorough and the driving instruction was excellent. The instructors are all experienced Truck drivers who now teach. The Head Instructor, Ceasar, is a superb teacher and leader for the team. I personally had a slow start with shifting, but all the instructors (Mark, Pedro) took the time to get me squared away. They also fostered a supportive environment for women who were in the program, which made it easier for everyone who has an interest to join. All the instructors were focused on safety and doing things the "right way." I am already getting call backs from new applications on indeed , but will be getting together with Amanda to work with their placement program. If you are looking at a driving school, I strongly recommend 160 Driving Academy.
