FAQs: What's your Question?
Why is Company Contract Training cheaper?
To utilize Company Contract Training you need to work for a company that is paying for your CDL or own your own company, which would be taking on paying for the CDL. Ultimately, it is a different program specific to an employee of a company and there are different requirements than the CDL School Training.
When can i start?
The time you start will be completely dependent on your availability and our CDL Instructor availability. We are very flexible and can usually meet tight deadlines, but there are factors that could delay the training process.
How long does it take to finish?
You should be able to complete your training and get your CDL within 30 days of your final sign-up and enrollment. This means you are completely paid up, we have all necessary documentation (Physical, Drug Test, MVR, etc.) and are able to put you on the training schedule.
Types of Training
CDL Class A – Proficiency Program (CDL School)
A Class A CDL is required to operate any combination of vehicles with a gross combination weight rating (GVWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, provided the towed vehicle is heavier than 10,000 pounds.
CDL Class A – Hot Shot Proficiency Program (CDL School)
Are you a Hot Shot Trucker? Get trained on an F-250 with a 30-foot gooseneck trailer. Getting your Class A CDL allows you to drive anything with a combination weight of 26,001 pounds or more.

Very knowledgeable & friendly staff all throughout the company, especially Jolyn he goes above and beyond to work with you on you training schedule, as well when it comes to making sure that your training goes smoothly and that you are covering everything you need to know, which I believe the 1 on 1 training package they have is the best since you really get the time to learn and understand step by step all aspects of the training while working on the things you really need to work on. The 1 on 1 training package is so reliable and efficient the way they have it setup in order for you to be successful. I totally recommend CNS and all the staff especially Jolyn Graham, they are the best in the area, don't hesitate to reach out to them for your next move towards a successful trucking career.
★★★★★
So grateful to have come across this training package. It was over an hour away for me but well worth the trip. Jolyn went out of his way to make sure things worked out for me, and was very friendly and helpful. The one on one training for me was the only way to go. Will happily recommend the package to anyone I know thats looking to get into it. Thanks Jolyn!
★★★★★
This team is amazing! we were new to the trucking world and they have been a huge help with getting all our accounts set up and always were willing to answer our questions , then we had a driver trained and there to they really did a great job with the training and the test. THANK-YOU
★★★★★
They are the best CDL driver you can ever find in PA,and more so their prices are affordable.I would recommend them to anyone who would wish to train.
★★★★★
Mike did an excellent job of getting everything set up and dot compliant.

I had an awesome experience with Jolyn training me for my CDL class A test. He made sure I knew everything about the pre-trip inspection and the air brake test. Parking maneuvers was the hardest part for me and he taught me to park like a pro. I passed my test on my first try! Also CNS is super awesome about scheduling and training on days that work for you. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to get their CDL license.
★★★★★
The company I work for purchased a new truck for me this past winter. I’m doing so my weight limit was over legal limit for a non CDL driver. I’ve driven trucks and trailers since I could drive but knew nothing about how to conduct pre trip inspections and also drive a semi..100% safe. Dean Weinhold taught me showed me and instructed me fantastically. Knowing nothing about motors I let him know that pre trip is my biggest issue and concern and he walked me through it over and over and made sure I was ready. Even better he and CNS were SO FLEXIBLE with my work schedule. He did it on my time and made sure I was ready. I now hold a CDL and got it on my first take. Thank you Dean and thank you CNS. Also pricing was second to none.
★★★★★
CNS offers an affordable alternative to obtain your CDL. The flexible one-on-one training gives students an opportunity to truly grasp the skills needed to pass the three sections of testing: pre-trip inspection, skills test, and on the road driving. On the day of testing, students are equipped with in-depth knowledge above and beyond that required by the examiner. I had a wonderful experience, and earned my Class A CDL on the first try!
★★★★★
A++ service. CNS is on top of anything we need with my company’s trucking. I just recently acquired my class A drivers license using CNS for training. The written test prep course, pre trip training, and skills/road testing performed with Dean was exceptional. I highly recommend CNS for their quality service at a competitive rate. Thank you!
