Low-Cost, High-Return Training

Swift Academy’s CDL program is one of the most accessible in the industry. Thanks to a tuition assistance program, students can complete their CDL training with little to no upfront cost, aside from minor personal expenses like food or licensing fees.

Tuition, books, lodging, and transportation are covered when students sign Swift’s financial commitment agreement — which requires driving with the company for 26 consecutive months post-licensing.

  • Career changers

  • Veterans or first responders
