While the Motor Vehicle Administration of Maryland does not technically require you to complete any training before earning your commercial driver’s license, most aspiring truck drivers find the education offered by a truck driving school to be invaluable. Most Maryland driving programs last between two and six weeks, depending on whether you plan on applying for a Class A driver’s license or a Class B driver’s license.

After you have completed enough truck driving hours to take your driver’s exam—which is however many hours you need to feel comfortable—you can go to the Motor Vehicle Administration and apply for your CDL. They will require you to take a written exam that covers basic driving skills and driving laws. Passing this exam allows you to move onto the next step, which is passing a driving exam. You get your commercial driver’s license after passing the rigorous skills exam.Just like most other fields, the success of the trucking industry relies on the networking and advocacy efforts of its employees. This field is prone to regular legislative changes that may affect your career. By joining a group like the Maryland Motor Truck Association, you can learn about new legislature or even contact your local politicians about it.

As a member of a truck driving organization, you can also have access to exclusive training events. These events look very good on your resume, highlighting your skills and your willingness to grow in your professions. Training events in Maryland include compliance seminars, safety audits, and on-site safety training events.
