Why should you avoid cheap truck driving programs?
It is NOT a good idea to take cheap AZ programs in an attempt to save!!!!
As tempting as it sounds, there is no ministry approved AZ programs that can be offered with some prices that unfortunately can be seen around these days. Simply speaking, there is no ministry program approved for $3999 or $4500.

The problem with cheap truck training programs
There are usually a couple of common risks associate with substandard AZ MELT programs:
- These programs usually take much longer to prepare the student for the road test.
- The schools usually are over-booked, and there is a long waitlist to have your road test booked.
- These programs are focused on providing the bare minimums to the students to just be able to pass the road test. Students in such training programs often have a hard time getting accepted for employment.
- It is much more likely to fail the first multiple times, before passing the road test, in these programs. There is no greater cost in this field than having to redo the road test again and again.
