TRUCKING WITH OOIDA
Tuesday, 1/20
11:00am CT: With the Trump administration cracking down on English-language proficiency and non-domiciled CDLs, there’s an important issue at the very center of the conversation: driver training. Lots of folks are doing it right – but too many are not – which is what led us to reach out to a group that’s making sure its members do it right, the Commercial Vehicle Training Association. Executive Director Andrew Poliakoff and Chairman of the Board Jeff Burkhardt joins us in an encore presentation to talk entry-level driver training standards, CDL mills, the Training Provider Registry and more.
Thursday, 1/22
11:00am CT: Mark Elrod, Danny Schnautz and Monte Wiederhold have had successful trucking careers, ones you can measure in decades and millions of miles. So when the trio of OOIDA board members impart their advice and wisdom, it’s worth something. In an encore presentation, the three reflect on where they’ve been, how the industry has changed over the years, and why a mind for mechanics combined with some self-reliance and a whole lot of “stick-to-itiveness” is still a pretty good formula for making it in the industry.
Friday, 1/23
11:00am CT: Linda Allen and Johanne Couture love trucking, which is one reason both joined the OOIDA board of directors. In a wide-ranging encore presentation, Linda and Johanne share stories from the road and express their wishes for making the industry a more welcome place for everyone. Plus, thousands apply – but there can only be one Pilot Road Warrior winner. This year, it’s OOIDA senior member Stacy Batiste, who tells us why he was genuinely shocked by his win – and what he plans to do with his new, refurbished semi built by the Diesel Brothers and the $50,000 cash prize.
