The conversation explores a unique training model for individuals considering a commercial driver's licensing program. Great Falls College acts as a broker agency, connecting interested students with industry partners through a speed dating-like event. The college takes care of the required materials and the industry partners provide the driver training. The model keeps costs down, involves industry, and allows students to potentially earn while they learn. The conversation also touches on the importance of industry partnering with colleges to address the need for skilled workers.
