We think you’ll find that it’s a family like none other.

Jamey said that DDA is their primary recruiting partner because of the length of the DDA training program.

“The DDA students come out of School with all the skills needed to become professional drivers. They got more behind the wheel time than any other School out there. That’s why we try to hire as many of their graduates as we can.”

 
DDA trucks stretch nearly 130 feet across the entrance of the Little Rock campus to welcome every one!

More than 200 students, drivers, recruiters and people interested in getting started as truck drivers were in attendance!
 
 

 
 
 
Such a great turnout – the parking lot is almost filled an hour before the Open House even began!

Those in attendance got to speak with recruiters from DDA as well as recruiters from:
TMC Transport
ROEHL Transport
Werner Enterprises
Empire Express
Stevens Transport
and Covenant Transport

Ron Landon is a brand new driver for Covenant Transport. He says he loves travel – and making a lot of money! He was formerly a carpentry foreman for one of the nations largest construction companies. He helped build some of Las Vegas’ most famous hotels including the Wynn, Venetian and Trump tower.

He became a professional driver because of the pay and benefits. And he’s looking forward to becoming a trainer soon.

 
Dale Hunt and Kathy Powell met with CDL students at the Job Fair. Kathy has been a professional driver for two years and loves the career. She comes from a trucking background – she managed the family truck stop for 10 years.

Now as a driver for Werner she’s getting to see the entire country and is making more money than ever before. She is already a member of the prestigious Werner Road Team (there are just 10 members out of the 7500 Werner drivers). That’s an amazing accomplishment for a new driver!

DDA has long been a proud supporter of our veterans – and the trucking industry is anxious to hire these men and women as they leave active service.

DDA’s program is approved for VA benefits and DDA has trained nearly 1000 military veterans!

DDA staff and trucking recruiters were able to speak with some veterans about the transition into civilian life and starting training for a CDL.

 
If you or someone you know is a military veteran and would like more information on how to use VA benefits for CDL training, please contact our Veterans Career Counselors today at 1-800-551-8900!

Thanks again to everyone who participate in this event on Friday! We are already looking forward to the next one!

Today we were able to get a photo of him with the CVTA plaque he was awarded!

Nice wok, Clifford! Your CDL students and DDA staff are very proud of your hard work.

At Covenant, we believe that our culture is as valuable to the success of our drivers as anything else we offer. We are a values-based company that puts a high premium on respect, integrity, and honesty.

What that means is that we put relationships above all else at Covenant. We know that if we treat drivers fairly, the company will in turn be successful and everyone will prosper.

It’s a surprisingly simple concept, but remarkably powerful.

Come out and talk to one of our recruiters and spend some time learning about the Covenant family. We think you’ll find that it’s a family like none other.
