TransForce acquires truck-driving school

January 22, 2019

Truck driver staffing firm TransForce Inc. acquired Miami-based The CDL School, a commercial truck driving school.

“The CDL Schools will be an exciting addition to our company and to our future, and a high-growth service line for TransForce,” said David Broome, president and CEO of TransForce. “This acquisition will incredibly enhance and transform our solutions for drivers and carriers. We will now be able to offer a full life cycle for the driver from education to employment, to safety and compliance, and returning to education for continued training throughout their career.”

Founded in 1963, The CDL School provides training for individuals to obtain a commercial driver’s license. The school also provides vocational training and employment training for individuals who are seeking employment within the ground transportation industry.

The CDL School will operate as The CDL Schools LLC and be led by its existing management team.

This is Alexandria, Va.-based TransForce’s eighth acquisition since 2016. It follows the acquisition, also announced this month, of Drive360 Logistics, a transportation recruitment firm targeting truck drivers and diesel mechanics.
