What is included in the finishing program?

CDL graduates can look forward to working with Halvor Lines’ top truck drivers with years of experience. From extensive safety training to real-time CDL coaching, we work hard to put you in the fast lane to becoming a truck driver. We also provide a year of additional mentoring with your trainer via phone, text, or email.  

Is this an online finishing school?

No. A CDL finishing school/program generally refers to training that includes behind-the-wheel instruction, which can only be done in person.

Does Halvor Lines offer entry-level jobs after graduation? 

Halvor Lines is actively recruiting to fill entry-level CDL jobs in all of its divisions. The first step is our paid OTR training (also known as a finishing program). We offer a five-week finishing program for entry-level drivers who want to drive solo or in teams; we also offer a 12-week finishing program for recent CDL graduates who want to become trainers and earn additional income. To apply for our CDL Paid Finishing program and entry-level truck driving jobs contact our recruiters or apply online.
