Smith Empire CDL Training is a dream of our owners Cherie and Terry Smith. They have been in the Trucking Industry for over 30 years, and together they have built an empire. When you talk to them you can not only see the passion they have for this industry you can hear it and feel it. They always wanted to start a CDL Class A school for so many reasons but the main reason is their concern about the lack of training new drivers have on the road today. They believe the quality of a new driver reflects on the training they receive. They want to change this industry standard of training one driver at a time.
