    I am a recent trucking school graduate from OBC. While at OBC the staff did everything they could to prepare me for my CDL test and when it came time for me to test I knocked it out of the park! I currently hold my CDLA thanks to the staff at OBC.

    I attended the electrician program and my brother there the cdl. The staff was helpful and the instructors are very knowledgeable. I highly recommend if you are looking to obtain vocational training.

    All the instructors are pretty cool that I had to deal with was awesome JP,DENNY I feel like if they can teach me, they can teach anyone all four have very different ways of teaching so something stuck from each of them for me but ultimately they all really seem to want the best for you and seem to really care about the progress you are making they definitely give you every tool you need to pass on the other side. It’s up to you to use it if I had to come to the same school again with the same crew I would.
