FSCC CDL Success Story: Meet Eli Meyers and Tyler Bailey!
Eli and Tyler just completed their CDL certificates at Fort Scott Community College (FSCC) in only 6 weeks. When asking what made Eli Meyers of Paola, KS what brought him to the FSCC CDL program, Eli said; “I chose FSCC because I’ve heard great things about the school, and it was the most affordable school in the area. Before I enrolled in the CDL program, I had zero experience with driving trucks and didn’t know what to expect. I am very happy with my time at FSCC and learned more than I ever imagined. The instructors were great and made sure that I left with plenty of real-world practice under my belt. I decided to get a CDL because I am going to be a lineman. I ended up getting paired with another kid my age that was also becoming a lineman. I got to build a great relationship with my partner and my instructor.”
