Getting my class A through KPDI has improved my quality of life, and income flexibility substantially. Anyone who’s thinking of getting their CDL I highly encourage them to do so. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! It was the best money I’ve spent. If you really get out there and look for the right jobs, you’ll make that money back within a month or even less. Thank you KPDI for everything you’ve done for me and my family! It’s a great feeling to know that we now have world class CDL training in our little town.
