General Information

Amarillo College's Truck Driving Academy has been serving students for over 30 years. Our facilities include more than eight miles of driving ranges and we provide a variety of equipment to prepare our students for employment. We strive to ensure that each student obtains the knowledge and skills required to maneuver a commercial vehicle through a variety of driving experiences, encounters, and situations they may face out on the road.

Open any newspaper to the help wanted section and you will see the ever-growing need for professional truck drivers. A great number of the major trucking companies are looking for drivers that are fresh out of a driving school. Many of our former students from ages 18 to over 70 are making wages between $35-$70,000 per year driving a truck. Nowhere else can you learn a new trade in such a short time (5 weeks) with a minimum investment ($2695.00) and immediately begin such a rewarding career. Enjoy your office with a view while making lots of money!
