SAGE CDL Training For Veterans and Military Service Members
GI Bill® is a registered trademark of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). More information about education benefits offered by VA is available at the official U.S. government website at www.benefits.va.gov/gibill.
If you are a military veteran who wants to obtain your CDL using your veteran’s educational benefits, you have come to the right place. SAGE Truck Driving Schools has been a trusted nationwide leader in CDL training for over 35 years. The military gave you the tools to succeed and the experience trucking employers are looking for. Truck driving school can be a great solution for veterans who want to work in a growing industry.
Trucking companies want veterans as truck drivers and are hiring now. SAGE can connect you with military-friendly trucking companies and get you on the road to success, so you accomplish your objectives. You’ve earned it.
VA benefits accepted at approved SAGE locations.
Advantages to Training at SAGE as a Veteran
Several SAGE schools have CDL training programs approved for Post-9-11 GI Bill® funding. Eligible and qualified veterans can use the Veterans Affairs (VA) funded GI Bill® benefits to pay for CDL training . SAGE programs approved for veterans’ funding allow a qualifying veteran to complete the SAGE CDL training program with little or no out-of-pocket costs. SAGE has experienced support staff who can assist you in determining whether you qualify for VA funded truck driving school.
Monthly Housing Allowance Benefit Available
Under the Post 9/11 GI Bill®, Monthly Housing Allowance can be available for those veterans who qualify while attending truck driving school. The benefit varies based on several factors. SAGE can also help arrange for housing while you attend our fast, focused truck driver training at approved locations across the country.
Founded by a Veteran, Serving Other Vets
SAGE was founded in 1989 by a veteran with the mission of providing the best truck driver training in the industry. Many SAGE managers, instructors, and staff are proud veterans like you. SAGE has been a nationwide leader in CDL training for service members, veterans, and their families. We believe that every service member, veteran, and member of a military family should have the opportunity to pursue a rewarding career in the exciting trucking industry. In honor of those serving in the U.S Armed Forces, SAGE provides top truck driver training programs for active-duty military, guard, reserve, veterans, and military family members.
Fast Training So You Get to Work
SAGE has comprehensive CDL training programs for veterans that are designed to provide you with the skills you need to succeed, and to get you to work fast. We understand that veterans are serious about their CDL training, and they expect professionalism. SAGE is committed to help you learn so you can earn.
Flexible, Focused, One-on-One, On the Road Training
You want the best training to ensure success as a CDL driver. Much like the military, our nationwide training and curriculum is designed to be uniform with consistent programs at all SAGE schools. We also recognize that every student driver is different. Students learn at different rates and have a variety of learning methods. Every veteran can rest assured that they will receive individual, one-on-one instruction over the road, in the truck. This is the level of attention every driver — and every veteran — deserves when learning to drive a tractor-trailer.

SAGE provides industry-leading access to many of the top-paying companies who hire veteran graduates of trucking schools. No matter what region of the country you are from, SAGE will provide job placement assistance with local, regional, and national trucking companies to hire our students. SAGE job placement assistance helps veterans apply to and evaluate the pay and benefits of many carriers, so veterans know they have the power of choice. To work with the best, you need to train with the best.
