    Talked with a lady there today. She said they accept WIA and work with WIA to get you accepted. The cost is $4,500. It is 4 weeks M-F 0700 to 1800 each day. She said WIA pays for the physical, room & board, & tuition. She was in Arlington, TX though for some reason. This school is PTDI certified. She said they have 3 students in the truck.

    Just wondering if anyone has gone through it.

    Just finished school there. Pretty comprehensive. They've been at it for decades so they have their system down and cover all you need to know. They will work with you until you get "it" even if that means keeping you an extra week. The road instructor I had was very good and observant. Overall, a pretty good school.

    I talked with a top guy at Scheider and he ranked them the best if you're looking for a school closed to DFW/central Texas. He said a lot of schools teach you just enough to pass the DMV but that atds takes the time to teach you how to be a trucker.
