CDL Training That Takes You Where You Want to Go

Train for a new career on a schedule that works for you. CDL training can take less time and is more affordable than a traditional four-year degree, and many students can continue working while they train.

As a CDL school Tucson students can turn to for flexible training options, HDS offers a specialized Professional Truck Driver Program that combines Class A CDL training with diesel maintenance. Additional options and services include standalone Class A training, Class B training, third-party CDL testing, refresher training for experienced drivers, license upgrades, and endorsement training.
