"It is no suprise that the PDI only gets 3.8 rating in reviews. I called this company to get information about its CDL program. A lady I spoke with refused to tell me how much it is going to cost me for the program unless I meet her in person and collect all sensitive information about me. She is trying to keep what is supposed to be public information private. Hhmm. This sour experience with the PDI pushed me away from dealing with this company. Takeaway: Try to find a better place to spend your money."

"My experience was honestly horrible and it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. After spending the money to go to a school that only gives you 3 opportunities to get it right, if not your on your own, because you can’t use their trucks again. There’s no love or care after the 3rd time failing. Now I agree, I signed up and agreed to the terms but the only thing I have left to pass is the road test and they can’t even honor that I made it that far or give me the opportunity to pay them, more than what they asked, to reuse their truck for the test and they said no. Please look at other schools, this not a place for you if you have no trucking experience or have doubts because they don’t care about you after your 3rd fail, they already got what they wanted from you."

"4300 dollars just for a class B license with no job assistance. Doesn't include anything but your training. They want more for the book you need for the class and also the cost for everything you need to get your license. All the dmv fees are extra. Plus when you tell them you only need the behind the heel training cause you already have the certificate for the theory part, they say you have to take it anyway. Highway robbery at its finest. No wonder why there is a shortage for truck drivers. Nobody can afford the license."

"I got my cdl B and currently going through class to get my cdl A. PDI has a Great team of instructors that have their own unique styles of teaching, offering a great learning environment that allows you to take a bit from each instructor and incorporate it into your own style, to make you complete and ready. The office staff is also very friendly and willing to answer any questions or doubts you may have. If you’re looking to get a cdl look no further. PDI is the school to go to. Thank you, Luis, Scott, Henry, Rick, Doug, Kelly and Tara. I appreciate all of you very much and the help you’ve given me on my new journey!"

"The only person that's not there for the money is Lewis he is the back up guru and wants you to win. Rick is the funniest, good teacher. Mr.Henry teaching style is the dad that tells you don't put your hand on the stove or you'll get burned and when you do it he'll say now do something different to get different results. Rob is the most laid back teacher he teaches offset simply. Doug is great at teaching shift pattern. Tara and Kelly are always happy which makes you happy."
