Sounds of diesel engines, air brakes, and truck air horns were heard across the Davidson campus on October 9th. The Truck Driver Training faculty brought two tractor-trailers to campus so faculty and staff were able to experience what it was like to get behind the wheel, drive, and back the trucks. All who participated, except maybe for some nervous instructors, enjoyed the day and were glad that the program gave them the opportunity. The Truck Driver Training program is located at the Davie campus and offers both curriculum and continuing education training. The curriculum program is an eight-week program that trains students to obtain a Class A commercial driver’s license and work in the trucking industry.
