The County of Cape May will again be offering
CDL training with the cooperation of the Cape May County Technical School
District & Cumberland County Technical Education Center. The program
operated by the Cape May County One-Stop Career Center began last year and based
on success is returning this year.
One of the most in demand jobs in the region
is CDL drivers. People who register for this program can obtain a CDL B Class
license, which may lead to a paid summer internship with Cape May County Fare
Free Transportation or potentially employment with another entity.
“I was so happy to see this program come
together last year with so many great partners working together,” said
Freeholder E. Marie Hayes, liaison to Fare Free Transportation. “Some of last
year’s applicants got jobs with the County and others went on to be hired
elsewhere. This fills a need and gets people to work.”
There will be a CDL Special Recruitment
Session on March 15th from 9:30am to 10:30am at the Cape May County One-Stop
Career Center, 3810 New Jersey Ave. in Wildwood.
For recruitment information and to begin
the initial Department of Transportation pre-screening process, please contact
Kathy Randazzo at (856) 451-9000 ext. 2203. Successful completion of the
program may lead to a paid summer internship with Cape May Fare Free
Transportation.
The CDL B Class to be held at Cape May
County Technical School District, 188 Crest Haven Rd in Cape May Court House. The
classes begin on March 25. Anyone who is interested must be signed up no later
