Overview

The ACE Driving Academy began in 2018 with a staff of over 20 years of truck driving and training experience. We believe training is the first step to a career as a Professional Truck Driver. The over-the-road instruction will be taught in well-maintained equipment; similar to equipment used daily in the trucking industry. Equipment utilized in training includes conventional style diesel powered tractors, with forty-eight to fifty-three-foot-long box-trailers.

Industry Leading Training School

The trucking industry depends on ACE to provide high quality, well trained, and road ready drivers after each graduation. ACE has built a strong partnership with many of the best trucking companies, and that puts our students in the best position to succeed with many of America’s largest trucking companies.
