I graduated from CDDT in Dec. 2018, having a dozen job offers before I even graduated. I accepted a job from a tanker company that rarely hires drivers with no... read more experience, but they hired me because I trained at CDDT. This company paid for my Hazmat and TWIC TSA background check and I’m on track to make 65-70k in 2019. I had absolutely no experience with driving a tractor trailer when I started classes with CDDT and with their training, I can now drive and operate a tractor trailer like a champ. The instructors have a lot of patience and knowledge, and they teach you the skills you’ll need for being successful out on the road while also giving you some knowledge you’ll need, such as what to watch out for in this business. The greatest thing about this school is that they treat you like family and are still there for you after you graduate if you should ever have questions or need anything. They have a lot of contacts in this business also. Phenomenal experience, phenomenal school, and phenomenal staff! Thank you, CDDT!

This school is phenomenal!Mike is a magnificent trainer.Ken is a amazing knowledgeable person of this profession definitely get you on the road with the most efficient information to be successful!

The staff was nice great personalities and I'm looking forward to going there

Long Post!! Never in a million years did I ever think about becoming a TruckHer, that was until my husband became one. He would take me out on rides... read more with him doing his routes to deliver. One night he MADE me drive from Sioux City back to Omaha. (After months of ride alongs of course). Im the type of person that will take on challenge, so I did. I was beyond scared but I knew our life was in my hands haha. Guess what happen? I got us back home that night safe and sound. It definitely pumped me up. After doing some research, the next week, I enrolled in Custom Diesel Drivers Training School. This was back in 2017. Best decision I made career wise. Ken (Vice President) is a awesome soul, he made the process simple and was straight forward about EVERYTHING. I got to work with some great trainers, including my top favorite trainer Mike. They both pushed, made me get over any fears and work with me until I understood the skills, I needed to be where I am now. Both of them are truly great and knowledgeable people that want you to succeed. If you are wanting to get into the industry go see these guys. This was one of the best experiences attending CDDT school hands down. Fast forward 5 years, Im still trucking. It amazes me how far I have came, in this predominantly male industry. I went from driving over the road, to regional and gaining my experience to be a local driver. If you want a challenge, be able to meet new people, make great money, travel outside of Nebraska and get out of your comfort zone, come to the otherside, men and ladies. But choose Custom Diesel Drivers Training. You wont be disappointed! You can get in house financing or check out your local community resources, that can help aide in your financial needs. I dont see myself doing anything else right now, I love what I am doing. So run dont walk over to CDDT. it will change your life, it changed mine. Good luck! #ladyTruckHer #Ciara #18wheeler #CDDT #dryvan #refers #containers #tankers #flatbed #dumptruck #pickalane

Good school. The only thing you have to do is to show up and respect the instructions. Take your time and they will help you through everything.

The best school and trainers u could ask for

My husband went there and had fantastic training. Everybody is friendly and very knowledgable . Highly recommend to anyone!! Easy financing with options!

The best school to get your CDL hands down. They are great ppl

This school taught me everything I needed to accomplish my goal in attaining my CDL Class A license. I'm so glad I chose this school. The thing that matters to... read more me the most is the people who work there. The instructors are amazing at what the do. If you listen an follow the instructions, you can not fail. The 2 women who run the show up front are kind hearted ladies who love what they do and make it a fun atmosphere to be in. The owner Jim and V.P. Ken love what they do an enjoy taking time out their days to lend a helping hand and most importantly lend a ear if you need to talk about anything personal or not they are there for you! Amazing, amazing people, I couldn't have done it and I wouldn't have wanted to do it with out my family at CDDT. So if you are interested, just stop by to talk with the lovely Beth who is the recruiter and she's always willing to answer anyones questions or concerns. Jade S.

Not bad. Ok. Learn quickly here. Come here prepared. No time for experimentation. To me this place doesn’t feel like a school. It is all about business. So be serious.... read more Too many students and not enough truck. First 5 weeks, you watch video and do quizzes. When you drive, they put you in a group of 4 per truck plus one instructor and you get to drive about 1 hour before lunch and 1 hour after break. You spend other SIX hours watching other students operate the truck. When it time learning to park, you get about 2 hour a day to be on the truck and spend other six hour walking in the heat or in the snow watching others operate the truck. So take class during fall or spring so that you don’t have to go through extreme weather. When you talk to them, keep in mind that, they are business people. They want your money. So they speak very well with you. Last suggestion is…. Believe both the positive reviews and the negative reviews people posted about them because they are true.

I choose CDDT over other local schools due to the extensive Over The Road experience of every Instructor at the school. Not only are you taught the skills needed to... read more attain your Permit (and eventual CDL) you are given the tips and life lessons of all those years of experience. They move you through the program based on your specific learning abilities. I went from not being able to shift a manual truck to successfully passing all tests on my first try. I highly recommend this group over any others! 🙂

I wish someone had the overall costs included on the website somewhere so I wouldn't have to call to inquire while I listen to the sales pitch. At the moment... read more I've looked at JTL trucking and Metro. Metro is obviously the cheapest. But JTL has job placement as well upon graduation. A friend of mine referred me to this place to speak to Jim. Not sure why. So here I am looking and I am going to make the decision with the most return on my investment. I just wish your website had more about what I would be getting out of your school compared to others.

I have just recently graduated from Custom Diesel. This was absolutely one of the Best Experiences of my Life!!! The teachers are Amazing, Patient, Understanding, and Fun... The office... read more ladies are a blast too!! I have so much appreciation to everyone at Custom Diesel... Thank You All So Much for giving me tools I needed to start my new career. I definitely recommend this school to anyone who wants to receive a cdl they will get you where you need to be. And it doesn’t stop at graduation, they will make sure you find a job that best fits You!! Definitely check them out!!!!
