All-State Career

This school is so unprofessional and unorganized!!!!! They give you a bunch of unnecessary work. I finished the program completed my internship, passed the state testing and was told we don’t have a graduation yet. When I signed up I was told I would graduate 06/01. Would not recommend this school at all!!!!!

This school will give you everything you need in order to become an employed CDL-A driver. As a current student, I have noticed many students are simply not prepared for any type of education or training. Learning takes a great deal of self motivation. Many of the students expect the school to be as tolerant as the Baltimore City Public schools, where many students are never required to self direct or perform difficult learning tasks. As adult students, no one should have to tell tthem to be on time, study or act professionally. I for one would never have the patience to teach some of the students with whom I have attended class. As an employer, I would never hire some of these students. It frightens me to know these people will be behind the wheel of a semi. The school does need to be more responsive to student needs, such as grade corrections and assisting students with flexibility of schedule. Students should be made aware of the demands and requirements. The dropout rate and non-completion rates would be drastically reduced if students understand every detail of the process beforehand. If you are serious about getting your CDL, All State Career is the place to go. If you want to just sleep through class, play on your cell phone and act like a high schooler, you'll fail. Would I do this again with the knowledge I have today. Oh hell yes.

All-State Careers is a great school for CDL trucking. Great curriculum and instructors are very informative and knowledgeable of their craft. It's been very smooth thus far.

First I would like to thank all the instructors who have helped me during my journey. The reason to why my rating is just a 3stars well here are the pros and cons Pros: -Ms D and Lloydwho's no longer there are the best instructors I've ever had and even more. Heck they deserve a raise bonus anything. Lloyd had me under my skills more and showed me how to shift. Ms. D had me on my pre-trip skills and prepared me for my finish line. She's a tough instructor but you have to understand this career is not a joke and everyone truck drivers and non truck drivers deserve to return home with their loved ones. -Jon and Dane- the most amazing instructors that have taken me out on the road gave me some good pointers what to look out for and had very good patience even on my worse days rainy days lol I can't thank these instructors enough for everything they have done and put up with. -Paul and Frank thank you for always putting a smile and helping me with straight line back and offset. -Mr. Ricky he's one tough examiner but I respect that about him. He means and he's making sure we know our stuff and not be an endangerment to ourselves or to others. Thank you Mr Ricky Now for the Cons: For all the money the school gets from students signing up they could at least do a better job on the pavement the lines and the trucks we are operating in. Their are more potholes on the range than on the streets of DC. Yes it's good exercise for the real world but at the same time it's horrible. The lines we are suppose to see to know we are in the boxes what a joke you can't see them for anything and if your class is at night even worse. I had to switch from nights to day time. As for the trucks we practice in..... Well I completely understand why get old trucks when it's going to get damage but student drivers. Ask that question would you give you first time non experience teenager a million dollar car heck no i would give them a junk car first. But when you are in a mod and the truck you need to practice your skill in is down not working or breaks don't work it's annoying. And the best for last. I have never been in a place or environment where students grown adults are in instructors face yelling making threats and nothing is done. I'm sorry these instructors are not our parents babysitter or friends..... Their job is to instructor us and prepare us for what we paid this school. I have see with my own eyes a student yelling and disrespecting Ms D but the student was able to return back to the range. Like what no I'm sorry that is an endangerment to instructors and students. How can instructors and students feel safe when that's allowed. Smh

I mean I learned what I needed to get my CDL but they don't do much to really get you ready to be a truck driver. They only have 3 instructors that are really good. Miss D,Mr. Dane and Mr.Ray. wish the other instructors cared as much as they do! If you want to just get a CDL than it's the place to go! Trucks are all worn out and the ones on the range that you practice in are basically held together with duct tape. The mechanic is a grumpy old man that acts like you are inconveniencing him if you need him to fix something.
