FleetForce Truck Driving School is preparing to expand operations across Florida with six additional training centers, giving its driver program the capacity to produce over 3,000 new truck drivers a year. With these sites set for an early March launch and promising graduates their commercial licenses after successful completion of courses – FleetForce will soon be powering up more skilled operators on our roads as they work towards fulfilling crucial industry demand.
“Truck driving remains at the core of our country’s economic abilities, and we see evidence of the growing need for new drivers every day,” FleetForce Owner Tra Williams said. “We’re excited to show what can be done to meet this tremendous need. Thanks to our new locations, there’ll soon be an influx of highly trained professional drivers on the road. That’s going to be a huge help to Florida industries, in addition to the U.S. supply chain and economy.”
Armed with strong partnerships, FleetForce is expanding its training network. Six new sites are set to open this year in collaboration with community colleges around Florida. Sites in Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Niceville, Daytona Beach, Ocala, and New Port Richey will join the existing lineup, and later this year the school has plans to launch in Lake City and Gainesville as well marking a total of eight new locations for the company’s initiatives throughout the state.
“Recruiting and retaining the next generation of professional truck drivers requires a paradigm shift — a change from the old model,” Florida Trucking Association President Alix Miller said. “The success of FleetForce is a direct reflection of improving accessibility, efficiency and promoting a new image of trucking for students. And with these new locations opening around Florida, trucking companies will have more local access to new, well-trained talent, further bolstering our workforce and the economy of Florida.”
