    Looked at the website and like that they do the state cdl test on site instead of having to go to the DMV.

    In Tampa, the unemployment office can possibly arrange free tuition if you're unemployed or underemployed. Underemployed means you're in a low wage job. Ask about the WIOA Program.

    I'm pretty sure it's the standard 160 hrs, but the guy said that you can pretty much come in and do your training as you like: weekends only, two or three days a week, or knock it out in three weeks at five days a week. Seems like a relaxed curriculum.

    160 hrs. is good. Can get a good job with that.
    For your first trucking job you will need original social security card (not laminated) and original birth certificate.

    Correct me if I am wrong but only certain companies like Prime require that. Many people don't have their original birth certificate.
