WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY:

Terrific Instructors!

by Anna, B.

Terrific instructors! I took the basic and advanced courses and learned so much! The teachers are friendly and take their time to explain everything as many times as it takes for everyone to understand the topic. After completing this school I have successfully started dispatching for a step-deck and flat-bed heavy hauler. I really felt prepared and confident when I started my job. 5+ STARS!

5 STARS

by Antonio, R.

The online courses were easy to follow along and structured very well. I feel like this course is built to really prepare you for starting to dispatch. I had no prior dispatching experience and I think it takes you through all the necessary basics to actually start working. I am looking forward to taking the advanced course. Great, friendly people! Would recommend to everyone who is considering learning truck dispatching!Anton

Professional and Knowledgeable

by Ronald, M.

I obtained my NDFCA National Dispatcher Certification and it definitely helped me to get hired to a new position. I am currently a Dispatch Manager and have 5 other dispatchers that I oversee. I am also in charge of dispatcher training. I think getting the certification has made me stand out and showed my boss that I am professional and knowledgeable. Great company.
