I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to you and the entire team at CDS. With both of our children having completed their driver's education through your school, I felt compelled to share a few thoughts about our experience.
From start to finish, CDS stands out as one of the most professional organizations I’ve ever worked with. Every detail of the process is clearly laid out, making each step—whether it’s the initial pre-course paperwork, classroom instruction, or behind-the-wheel training—smooth, organized, and stress-free.
Your instructors are outstanding. They truly prepare students for success behind the wheel. Both of my kids had wonderful experiences and were especially impressed with James and Marisa. Thank you both for your dedication and guidance!
EXCELLENT SCHOOL!!!

My son just finished drivers ed at CDS. He had an excellent experience. And felt the instructor Marisa treated all the students with equality and fairness. He will take his driving test for the DMV soon and feels confident his time at CDS will pay off.

If you're looking for a good place to go to get your CDL A or CDL B look no further! I took the CDL B course and couldn't be more happy. The small class sizes makes sure that each and every student has enough individual attention/help. From the second you enter the door you are greeted by either Kathy or Jordyn who will answer every question you might have. Not only that but they help make sure you get the information for financial aid to make sure you can afford tuition. It's a bit more expensive than some other places but like the saying goes "you get what you pay for." Our class was fortunate enough to have Lenny, a previous Alumni as an instructor and he made the course easy to understand and fun. I feel privledged to know we were his FIRST class he taught! Lenny has 10+ years of experience in the industry and if he doesnt know the answer to a question he will find out for you. Concord Driving School will help set you up with seeking employers and make sure you have the tools to succeed. When applying to jobs, mentioning CDS has given employers peace of mind that the student is trained correctly. 10/10 would recommend 👌

I started this class with zero prior experience. It felt kind of like a trucking boot camp in the beginning haha. A lot of information to take in the first couple of weeks. I love that there were 3 instructors. Each had their own teaching style which helped to make sure the class understood the course. Ray, Roy and Ken are great.
Unfortunately, I didn't pass the yard skills test the first couple of times but the owners (Kathy and Jim) were kind enough to make time for me to practice before I retested. I got my Class A license today and am so excited to move forward with my career. The ladies in the office are fantastic also!
The ONLY thing I didn't like is I wish I got to spend less time in class and more time driving the truck. I believe that's something that is going to happen with future classes though.

I had a great experience at CDS. Going into this I was super nervous but Ken (CDL-B Instructor) made me feel very comfortable while testing and driving. Ken was very informative, he always answered any questions or concerns I had. By the time I had to test with the trooper I knew everything about the truck I was using to test with. The school really goes above and beyond to make sure you’re ready to pass your skills test. All you have to do is pay attention, study, and listen to what the instructors are telling you. I did have the chance to get to know Lenny who is a new instructor in training. He was really nice and easy to chat with. My first drive I had was with Lenny and he knew I was super nervous but made the experience less intimidating.
I also want to add the ladies in the office were always really nice. Jordyn was thorough and went over everything with me before I started class. Kathy was always on top of getting right back to me anytime I sent them emails with questions.
I highly recommend CDS.

I chose CDS because of the reviews, location, and program. Although I know a lot about trucks and could drive, hey helped me get my cdl the right way. Its the little things in this industry that will burn you, not the big picture. The instructors have years of experience with invaluable knowledge that you can't get from just renting a truck, trying to pass your cdl course the first time, and jumping into a driving job.
To those who are interested: please know that the school takes work..don't expect it to be easy. There's a lot of studying to constantly do throughout your 6+ weeks..so much so that you may not be able to work another job. You also have to be able to take criticism with your driving from instructors...they aren't being mean, they're trying to teach you the proper manner in which to drive. I do have some small criticisms, but overall its helped me get my cdl a... and learn to do things the right way. I can tell you from experience now... you'll be able to find a good job that's a blast to do (drive) every day..and get paid very well for it.

I went here on a unemployment scholarship. I was told right from the word go what to expect of the industry. When I graduated in May of 2015 I left the school feeling very confident in my knowledge and skills to be a competitive employee in this very demanding field. I now have been driving for almost 2 years and recommend to anyone who asks to check out this school. Thank you so much Jim, Kathy, and Jordan. Also a special shout out to both my instructors they were amazing.

Passed my Class A test a week ago. For anyone going for their commercial license you couldn't choose a better school. The course is very well structured and by the time you take your test you're fully prepared. The teachers Jim & Roy do a great job, they are ex drivers who have a lifetime of experience to impart. The course is laid back but they really get you to where you need to be. Thanks guys, really enjoyed the experience.

This has been a life changing thing for me , I love this school and the staff are great . Jim and Cathy are real nice . the teacher Roy is a funny dude with good storys about real life that can help you in your career as a Truck driver.
The course they teach is real good and packs you full of knowledge and the trucks they use work great.
Don't be fooled by a few bad reviews from other people , they were not cut out to be truckers. this place is a good school .
If you want to start your career as a CDL Driver , call today and talk to Cathy , Jim , Or Jordan and they will help you out with that new chapter in you life as a Truck Driver.
