Description
The Stafford Driver Training School is operated through the Adult Career & Technical Education program at Stafford Technical Center. Our certified licensed instructors prepare students with the federally required knowledge and skills to become professional truck drivers. When you complete the classroom and over-the-road state-approved curriculum, you have completed our course. Your next step is to take the state-required CDL skills test to obtain your class A or B commercial driver’s license (Stafford Technical Center prepares students to earn their CDL, but does not guarantee a class A or B commercial driver’s license).
Note: The classroom, practice range, and equipment are located seven miles from Stafford Technical Center at the Casella Operations Center in West Rutland.
Please be advised that Stafford Technical Center does not guarantee employment after students complete this training program, nor does it provide access to school-based career counseling or employment placement services. When appropriate, STC program staff refer eligible candidates to local employers and government agencies that can help them develop an employment strategy.
