Baltimore | September 7, 2017 – Maryland New Directions (MND), Baltimore’s leader in job training and career counseling, is partnering with a local transportation provider to provide much-needed commercial transportation training and solid career opportunities to Baltimore residents. Trainees who complete MND’s no-cost, 60-hour, 3-week training program and pass a written CDL permit exam will be equipped for behind-the-wheel training provided by our partner, preparing them to earn a CDL-B driver’s license and providing the foundation for a successful career.
MND designed the Commercial Transportation Career (CTC) training program to fill two significant needs: improving the accessibility and opportunity for those who want to work in commercial transportation and helping employers identify and retain high quality CDL-B licensed drivers. Together, these two goals also address and support the overall transportation needs of residents and businesses in Baltimore City.
“MND is proud to address Baltimore’s workforce and transportation needs through our Commercial Transportation Careers (CTC) model,” says Maurice Good, MND Program Director.
