Deciding to become a truck driver is the first step towards a rewarding career and selecting the right commercial driver's license (CDL) training program is crucial. A CDL training program is not merely a prerequisite; it paves the way for your future success in the trucking industry. When choosing a program, consider various factors like accreditation, instructor qualifications, curriculum, class size, and facilities, as these elements significantly influence the quality of your training and your readiness upon graduation. Although many CDL training programs exist, they vary in quality. It is vital to choose a program renowned for excellence and offering financial aid options suitable for your budget. Roehl Transport's CDL training program stands for its commitment to safety and its unique approach of compensating students as they earn their CDL, providing the essential training for a safe, long and prosperous career in trucking.

A profit-sharing plan is a way for a company to share the profits with their employees. A 401(k) match is an amount contributed by a company that is equal to the amount an employee contributes to their own 401(k) retirement account. Both 401(k) employer matches and profit-sharing plans allow employees to save for their retirement. 401(k) plans require an employee to contribute to get the match, while Roehl’s profit-sharing plan does not.

National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW) is the unofficial start of the spring construction season. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and its stakeholders sponsor activities to bring nationwide attention to this topic. Work zones and highway workers are integral to upgrading and maintaining our transportation system. 

Getting CDL training starts with first obtaining a CLP or commercial learners permit, and Roehl has many resources you can use to prepare.
