Complete Class A CDL Prep Program

From permit to license — tractor-trailers, flatbeds, tankers and more.

Step 1 — Before You Can Test

You Need a CLP First

A Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) is required before you can begin behind-the-wheel training or schedule your DPS skills test. You must hold the CLP for a minimum of 14 days before testing. Schedule your CLP knowledge test at your local Texas DPS office before enrolling.

The Class A CDL is the most in-demand commercial license in the country. Our preparation program is designed to help you understand what is required, build your knowledge, and arrive at your DPS skills test ready. Contact us to confirm current availability and what is included.

What's Included

  • CDL knowledge and theory preparation
  • Pre-trip inspection study and coaching
  • Backing maneuver preparation guidance
  • Air brakes knowledge preparation

Who This Is For

First-time applicants, drivers upgrading from Class B, returning professionals

Upgrade Path

Already Have a Class B? Upgrade to Class A.

If you hold a Class B CDL, you don't start over — you build on what you already have. Our B-to-A upgrade track focuses on combination vehicle skills, tractor-trailer backing and the additional DPS test requirements. Shorter timeline, same thorough preparation.

  • Combination vehicle theory
  • Tractor-trailer backing preparation
  • Basic-control exercise coaching (Forward Stop, Straight-Line Backing, Forward Offset Tracking, Reverse Offset Tracking)
  • Air brakes knowledge preparation
  • DPS Class A skills test readiness
  • Focused track — builds on Class B
