Our dedicated/supply chain driver training program will take students who have graduated from one of our approved truck driving schools in the previous 180 days. Students will also earn a $4,800 tuition assistance bonus, payable after completing orientation at a rate of $150/month for the first 12 months and $250 for months 13-24.
If you have less than 6 months' solo driving experience OR have been outside of the truck for a while, we have a paid training program tailored for each level of experience. This program will provide you with up to 5 weeks of paid training at $800 per week while training.
Dedicated/supply chain driver pay is account-dependent. Please see each specific position to view pay and other details.
If the hazmat endorsement is required, you must apply for it within 30 days of completing training (Averitt will reimburse cost upon receipt).
All drivers going through our training programs will also attend our finishing school during the last week of their training. This is an extensive backing and turning program to ensure you’re well prepared for the road. This unique training allows drivers to learn as a team, develop trust and, even more important, learn self-confidence.
Driving for the same customers certainly has its benefits. With our dedicated student driver training program, you can be in the driver's seat before you know it. Download this document to learn more about our dedicated student driver training program.
