CDL Refresher

Get back behind the wheel with confidence through focused, one-on-one CDL refresher training.

Our CDL Refresher course is designed for drivers who already hold (or previously held) a CDL and want to sharpen their skills, rebuild confidence, or prepare to re-test after time away from the industry.

Whether you’ve been out of the truck for a while, changed careers, or simply want extra seat time before starting a new job, our experienced instructors tailor training to your background and goals. You’ll work on the specific areas you care about most — not a one-size-fits-all program.

Is the CDL Refresher right for you?

  • You have a current or expired CDL and want a skills tune-up.
  • You’ve been out of a truck for a year or more and want to rebuild confidence.
  • Your employer or insurance company requires refresher hours.
  • You want focused practice before a road test or pre-hire evaluation.

What we focus on

  • Complete pre-trip inspection review.
  • Backing maneuvers: straight line, offset, and alley dock.
  • Shifting, turning, and space / speed management.
  • Defensive driving and hazard awareness.
  • On-road coaching tailored to your experience level.

How CDL Refresher training works

Training is typically organized into short, focused sessions so you can quickly get comfortable again in the driver’s seat while fitting around your schedule.

1. Skill assessment & plan

We start with a quick conversation and ride-along to see where you’re comfortable and where you want more help. From there we create a refresher plan just for you.

2. Yard & range practice

You’ll spend time on backing, coupling/uncoupling, and vehicle control in a controlled environment, with clear, step-by-step coaching.

3. On-road coaching

Once you’re comfortable on the range, we head out on the road to practice turns, lane changes, highway driving, and real-world scenarios — with an instructor right there to guide you.
