I chose Custom Diesel initially because it was the ONLY school in the area that matched my schedule needs. I needed afternoon/night class so I could still work. That said,... read more I have zero regrets about choosing Custom Diesel! The instructors all know their stuff and they genuinely care about their students. I wholeheartedly recommend Custom Diesel.

November 17, 2019Long 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

November 10, 2022I 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!

Custom Diesel Drivers Training is simply amazing. I initially complicated things for myself by thinking I could attend training 2 days a week. After realizing that was a huge mistake, the... read more staff worked with me to adjust my schedule. The instructors invest so much time and energy to ensure the success of their students. I would like to personally thank all of the instructors especially Mike and Nick as well as the administrative staff for supporting me through my journey.

February 17, 2022Not 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.
