This free session is called\u00a0\u201cShift Into Success\u201d<\/a>\u00a0and is open to both members and non-members of OOIDA and will cover cost of operations for owner-operators and small fleet owners.

\u201cTruck to Success<\/a>\u201d is an intensive training course for drivers ready to take their first steps toward becoming an owner-operator. OOIDA conducted its first session in March 2019. The success of the class prompted OOIDA to plan a second Truck to Success training series, which is scheduled for three full days from Sept. 10-12 at the Courtyard by Marriott in Blue Springs. The training is designed to follow a logical path of information for transitioning from a company driver to an independent contractor.<\/p>\n
