WCCC CDL Financial Assistance Grant
The CDL program financial assistance grant is available to Ohio residents enrolling in the CDL program.
The Washington County Career Center has joined with The Ohio Department of Higher Education (ODHE) for a student aid program for any Ohio resident enrolling in the CDL Class A or CDL Class A +Hazmat training program. This is a grant/forgivable loan program to assist Ohioan's who want to become commercial truck drivers and work for an Ohio-based company or be self-employed in the state of Ohio.
This grant-supported training is a 50% grant (the CDL program graduate does not have to pay back) and a 50% forgivable loan (if requirements are met in a predetermined time frame).
