I wanted to give Georgia Driving Academy an honest review and can't leave them with anything but 5 stars. The staff and instructors genuinely care about students and their ability to safely operate a tractor trailer truck. In the beginning, I had minor issues with admissions, but they quickly sorted it out and helped me get into class. They really could use newer equipment to help students have access to trucks for practicing maneuvers for their DDS test, but the instructors knowledge and abilities to recognize students short comings and correct them more than make up for the older equipment. If you're looking for a place to get your cdl, look no further. Jonathan, Mr. Gee, Donyel, Mike, Aernold, and Kristen have been most helpful through the process.

This school maybe a good school but they tell you they can get you enrolled. When you show up and the very next day they turn you away and say you can't enroll. Waste of time, gas, and energy.

Hospitality: I was greeted and there was more than enough staff to assist me with the questions I had. Cleanliness: The exterior of the building was spotless outside and in. Floors were mopped, and swept clean. Service: The school staff is genuine and wants to see the students prosper. There are financing options, special discounts, and state aid programs to pay for the education in full.

I'm looking for a local school to get my CDL but am not interested in doing OTR but looking to do regional routes. Does that matter where I go to school? Or will the big companies only pay for tuition if you sign up for OTR?
