Description of Training Provider

Program Description

To prepare students to pass all examinations required to receive a Class A CDL. Students will be trained in the General Knowledge, Combination Vehicles, and Air Brakes sections of the CDL manual. Additionally, students will be trained and prepared to pass the Road Skills, Yard skills, and Pre-trip examinations in the yard. Upon completion of training students will be prepared to take the Pennsylvania CDL-A exam which is facilitated by the Pennsylvania DMV or a third-party examiner on behalf of the Pennsylvania DMV.

Skills & Competencies

The first 40 hours of class will be in the classroom with a live, Virtual Classroom Instructor. Each student will be provided a laptop computer while in the 160 Driving Academy classroom to participate in the Virtual Classroom synchronous training.  Students are provided  instruction on topics and then are quizzed on the materials they just reviewed.  Each quiz is graded and accumulates a composite grade which is derived by an average score of all quizzes conducted.

After a student completes the virtual classroom training and successfully obtains their Commercial Leaners Permit at their local DMV, the next 120 hours will be spent in the 160 Driving Academy training yard where students will learn pre-trip, driving skills and road maneuvers behind-the-wheel in a tractor trailer. While driving on the road, students will be driving the truck with a 160 Driving Academy instructor at all times. Students will be using 160 Driving Academy’s Tractors and Trailers for this portion of the training. Students will be scored daily in the classroom and yard through 160 Driving Academy’s proprietary Learning Management System (LMS).

Finally, students will take their State Licensing tests at either the Department of Motor Vehicles or with an approved Third Party Tester.
