The Odds Are in Your Favor With SWTDT Las Vegas

When you think of Vegas, you may think about the lights, the shows, and the sound of slot machines jingling wherever you go. More often than not, natives and tourists alike will gamble away the money they brought with them, giving meaning to the phrase, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." People head to The Strip, hoping to win big. Little do they know that if they just kept traveling north for about 15 more minutes, they would have a lot more luck.

There is a little place, away from The Strip and all the noise, that you can come to turn your money into an investment, and that place is Southwest Truck Driver Training. Here, we will give you the tools you need to be a proficient, professional, truck driver. Earning your CDL is not a temporary gamble with your money, but instead a permanent solution to solving money problems that will pay off for the rest of your life.

The lovely SWTDT Vegas team.

At SWTDT, you'll be able to double, even triple, your earning potential, in as little as one month's time. That's how quickly you can earn your CDL with us, if you attend full-time. And because all of our campuses offer job placement assistance, you will be able to take your new license and go straight to work.

Many of our students have graduated and started their careers alongside veteran truckers, who often say they can't believe that our graduates are new to trucking. This level of skill is only acquired thanks to our highly experienced instructors at SWTDT Las Vegas, who have 159 years of combined experience. Our instructors have pulled many different types of trucks and loads, driving every route imaginable.

Our training department manager, Chester Murray, drove trucks for 16 years, and he still loves test day at SWTDT more than anything else. It is his favorite day because he sees a lot of smiling faces and, "satisfied customers." These graduates know they've taken a smart gamble, and that their futures now look a whole lot brighter. Chester is a great leader for our students here at the Vegas campus because he has a friendly, upbeat, and encouraging attitude.

This seems to be a common theme on campus, as just about every employee talks about the positive atmosphere here, which helps students to feel confident and capable in their new career.

Mellody Abrego, our Vegas campus Director, is also a great asset to our team. She loves seeing new students come in (new classes start every other Monday), and the level of excitement and anticipation on those days, especially when students see the awesome trucks they get to practice driving.

We even have husband and wife trainers, who were a driving team during their trucking years (we will do a separate post on them later.)! Now, as instructors, they are able to impart the wealth of knowledge they possess from their decades on the road.

In addition, we have a reputation that precedes us. Many companies are eager to hire our graduates, because they know that we have equipped them with all the tools necessary to be successful in their new careers. From knowing how to back up a big rig and understanding the laws that must be followed, to knowing how to conduct yourself professionally in any situation, we will take you through all of it.

As you can see, the odds are in your favor, with SWTDT! So if you're ready for the possibility to start earning a real salary, with great benefits, contact our Las Vegas campus at (702) 633-5353 today.
