  • Roehl Transport Offers Several Programs to Help Veterans

The Roehl Honor Program™ is a two-part program. It begins by giving you the recognition you deserve. The second phase is an apprenticeship. We’ve developed a training program that helps you not only take advantage of your GI Bill benefits, but also become successful in the transportation industry.

Roehl’s two-year Apprenticeship Program: This specially created Roehl training program, approved by the U.S. Departments of Labor and Veterans Affairs, is a registered, national competency-based apprenticeship program. We will help you submit specific paperwork for the apprenticeship program. This program is similar to a U.S. military apprenticeship program, however they are not the same.

Over the course of your two-year apprenticeship, you’ll receive Department of Labor certificates for each level of training you complete. At the end of your two-year program, you’ll be recognized as a certified Heavy Duty Truck Driver.

The approval of Roehl’s apprenticeship program by the Department of Veterans Affairs allows you to draw your GI Bill monies for up to the 24 months of your apprenticeship. The actual amount you’re entitled to will depend on the length of your service and service type — Active Duty, National Guard, Reserve. We’ll even help you fill out the paperwork and assemble your VA packet.

Your GI Bill monies, in combination with your generous Roehl earnings, will make it possible for you to enjoy substantial compensation — adding comfort and stability while easing the transition between military and civilian life. For more information about your GI Bill benefits, go to www.gibill.va.gov or call 1-888-GI-BILL-1.

The transition from the military world to civilian life can be overwhelming. Roehl understands that. The Roehl Honor Program gives you and your family real and immediate security.

We can also help you apply for a CDL waiver and transfer your military license to a CDL-A, then get a great trucking job with Roehl.

Need a CDL? Another popular program we have is the “Get Paid While You Get Your CDL.” You are hired and paid as an employee on day one. Training to obtain your CDL is part of the job. You’ll be paid $500 a week while you get your CDL. The CDL training is four weeks and is available in multiple locations.
