St. Charles Community College’s six-week Commercial Driving School is designed to meet the increasing demands for qualified commercial truck drivers. Students are trained on manual transmission vehicles with the latest materials and state-of-the-art simulators. Small class sizes and highly experienced instructors ensure you’ll get the attention you need to succeed.
Training for your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) at SCC rather than with a commercial carrier means you won’t be bound to a single employer, allowing you to find the best jobs available. Working as a truck driver means you won’t be tied down to a 9 to 5 schedule, giving you a level of independence you won’t find in other occupations and allows you a great way to see the country. Whether you want to drive for a national carrier, pursue a management position, or own and operate your own trucking business, SCC is a great place to start your new career.
The program consists of six weeks of theory, lab, and hands on training. We also offer Hazardous material training at an additional cost of $350 during the seventh week.
$5,000 Includes:

1. Students must have a valid Missouri driver’s license.
Applicants with a distressed driving record that include multiple moving violations, DUI, or have felony convictions within the last five years are encouraged to counsel with the program director. Students with these types of offenses may incur difficulty gaining employment as a commercial driver. Your confidentiality will be valued.
2. The ability to communicate in English proficiently is recommended to assist in the successful completion of the program and to operate a commercial vehicle safely.
