Congreso has been proudly offering CDL-A Training to Philadelphia residents since 2004. As a result of consistently delivering high quality training that results in successful outcomes in the areas of graduation, employment and job retention, we are funded to serve as one of the main gateways to obtain FREE Class A training in the city of Philadelphia. The program typically graduates over 100 individuals on a yearly basis.
Sujei, a mother of two young children, was one of over 30 applicants to apply for a coveted CDL-A training slot through Congreso during the month of January 2022. Staff were only able to accept 10 new applicants for February classes so Sujei was faced with less than a 50% chance of being chosen. When it came time for Sujei to interview in front of the program selection panel, she immediately impressed all as she had already secured a Class-A permit and a Hazmat endorsement – based her own studying efforts. Furthermore, Sujei shared that she was fully prepared to secure a long haul Tractor Trailer driving job immediately upon graduation which is a huge undertaking especially for mothers. Sujei was selected as a finalist and enrolled in the CDL-A program on February 28. 2022. Sujei’s performance as a student was extraordinary – graduating within six weeks of program enrollment – becoming the first in her class to graduate. Sujei is currently in the final stages of interviewing for employment as Tractor Trailer Driver with some of the most reputable Transport Companies in the industry.
