Florida Trucking Association and FleetForce Truck Driving School on Nov. 29 announced a joint initiative to put more truck drivers on the road.
Several companies that are FTA members will offer fully paid tuition to potential drivers looking to obtain a commercial driver license and begin a career as a driver.
Also, those companies say that, in addition to tuition costs, in some cases once the candidate obtains the CDL he or she will receive a sign-on bonuses, and some students will begin receiving a paycheck from the company while they obtain training.
