I could not be happier with this school, office manager Michelle was very helpful classroom instructor Keith shared a lot of his experience that made it clear of what to expect! Also my trainer Gustavo on the range showed me how to operate the truck safely he has a unique training style that will get you trained the Oldskl way (you will learn) could not have done this with out the help of these people including my Examiner Sergio who came out on Easter to give me my final exam also a special thank you to all my classmates that showed me support thank you everyone!!!!!

Training was great. Had Keith for classroom training and even though it was dry, I learned a lot. Training out on the yard was very good. Had Rafael as an instructor and honestly training was great. Both instructors were very patient and understanding with the students. I was late to training everyday esp out at the yard due to work but they made sure that I was up to speed and got my time in to practice. Thank you RTDS for all the help to get my Class A license.

Classroom setting was very informative. We watched many youtube videos to get prepared for the dmv test, many videos. I suggest you download cdl practice test apps and take the tests many times before you actually go to the dmv. You will be happy that you did. Also, while you are there, it doesnt hurt to take the duals, triples, and tanker portions of the test. They are not very long, and it doesnt hurt to have those endorsements even if you never plan to use them. The road course, and skills part of the class is really what I wanted to have under my belt. Although you can test well and grab the endorsements, driving is a different challenge in its own right. From offest to straight line backing, to parallel parking, you will have plenty of time to practice. Driving a manual transmission semi with over 1 million miles, and many different students behind the wheel can be a challenge, so you will want to practice on one vehicle and stay with that one, if at all possible, for test purposes. The pretrip has a lot to remember if you have never walked around one of these vehicles, but depending on your instructor, you should be able to have all of your questions answered before the final test. Pack your patience, as you will be with several other students, and various skill levels, unless you purchased a seperate package. I paid tuition in full, but during the class found out that there were other options available. Overall, this experience was worth it for me because I got a lot of questions answered by guys who have been in the industry for 20+ years. When it came to the skills and road test, with plenty of studying on my imown time, I felt confident and ready to tackle the roads of Las Vegas. Thanks to the instructors and staff at RTDS, I am able to start a new career in the trucking and shipping industry.

Review №17

I’m new to the trucking world and was looking for a school to go to and learn and get my CDL, so i found this company called them for some basic information and right of the back “Daniel the Owner” answers the phone and is really pushy and quick to get off the phone not the best customer service. So I let that one slide, whatever. Went to the DMV next day to get my permit passed it, so I called back to get a follow up on what’s the next procedure and once again “Daniel the owner” talks to me on the phone same with the same vibe as yesterday so I mention to him “I don’t appreciate how unprofessional you’re being. I’m just going to find another company that’s giving me a better welcoming.” And his comment was “Ha!, good luck” and just hung up on me. I couldn’t believe it was the OWNER talking to me like that as if Daniel is untouchable.Good luck new guys with this company. I’m taking my thousand$ elsewhere.

Review №22

I had a great 4 week class with RTDS 2 weeks in the classroom with Keith, explained things well and showed plenty of informative videos. Then 2 weeks on the Test Lot with Sergio, great instructor, can joke around a little to help get you more comfortable with learning about the truck. All instructors help and if you don’t understand you can go talk to another instructor and they help out a lot also. GREAT Experience!!!

I took the 4 week class, the first week they help you study to pass the written so you can get that accomplished. After that you study for what you need to know on the road and job. The final two weeks on the road by the time I was done I felt like I had all the experience I needed. Keith and Ali were my instructors and they were great.

Review №59

Waste of time and money! I told the people at the office what my goals were with my cdl which was to be a bus driver I went ahead and did all the the written tests and passed before class started, the first two days of class the instructor had me training in a manual tractor trailer then two days before my testing they switched me into an automatic tractor trailer which was completely a total different vehicle so I had to cram myself studying before taking the pre trip and road test thank god I had luck on my side I passed with flying colors! The following day I went to submit my paperwork to the dmv and was told I have to now schedule a appointment for my passenger endorsement which is another pre trip inspection and road test!!! I had a good job lined up for me but now I have to wait two months from now just to take the same test over again and hopefully that job will still have a position for me I just wish the people at the school told me I will have to go through this before just taking all my money and wasting my time! I would recommend southwest trucking I heard they’re more honest and straight forward and understand all the steps you’ll need

I just finished my time (and passed my CDL test) with RTDS and I want to get this review posted right away.The office staff was friendly and helpful, and my classroom instructor Keith was really great and made getting the permit part handled super easy pointing me at exactly what to study plus his experience.I REALLY am writing this to commend my behind the wheel instructor Raphael though. This guy was beyond awesome, with his teaching I was able to absolutely crush the test. His real world knowledge and applications he instilled in our group and his style of teaching left no choice than to succeed. I can’t say it enough as I embark on my new career, THANK YOU RAPHAEL.

MONTHS after, i still have not received a date to start and after having to leave to state because of an emergency they refuse to refund my deposit.
