Josh Kleyman Joins WHAT THE TRUCK?!? to Discuss High School CDL Training
Josh Kleyman, Executive Director of Zeta Driving School, recently joined FreightWaves’ WHAT THE TRUCK?!? podcast to discuss how Zeta is creating new career opportunities for high school students and helping prepare the next generation of professional truck drivers.
During the interview, Josh shared how Zeta's partnership with Hickman Mills School District is helping eligible students earn their Commercial Driver's License (CDL) while still in high school. He also discussed the role of Bethany Kelly, Real World Learning Facilitator, in connecting students with hands-on career training opportunities.
The conversation explored misconceptions about younger drivers, the importance of quality CDL training, and how partnerships between schools and industry can help address workforce needs.
For Zeta, the initiative is about more than teaching students to drive trucks. It's about giving young adults the opportunity to graduate with valuable credentials and a head start on a career in the transportation industry.
