The program falls within the purview of PVAMU’s The Rural Workforce Academy (TRWA).
The CDL program will include a qualifying screening, classroom instruction, tutoring if needed, driving instructions, and job placement assistance if needed. Course content focuses on all aspects of being a safe, qualified commercial driver.
The inaugural program is free to the first four qualifying registrants, but registration is required by Tuesday, September 22nd.
