鈥淭his school was the best thing that has ever happened to me, truck driving has made me money and I have been pretty successful to this day, I鈥檓 making over 2 thousand a week in the oil fields hauling sand but most importantly the training that I received from this school saved my life on more than a few occasions from bad weather and reckless drivers on the road. Again thank you CET for everything and BTW I鈥檓 now a home owner.鈥�
