Commercial driver's licence (CDL)
Weeks rather than years, a few thousand dollars rather than tens of thousands, and it is the cheapest credential on this site that leads to work paying above the typical US job.
获得——幅度的中半部分——的代价。
培训时间没有单一的长度——这是按州确定的。
支付这笔费用需要多发几个月的加薪,直到你达到总领先期,以上培训时间首先。
在无法核实上述数字的地方,我们只公布估计数,而只公布估计数。

成本数字是什么,它不是
This figure covers only the truck-driving schools that take federal student aid — 37 institutions reported one — and that is a small and probably unrepresentative slice of CDL training. Most CDL training is either paid for in cash at a private school or funded by a carrier in exchange for a work commitment, and neither appears in federal data at all. That range is median cumulative FEDERAL LOAN DEBT at completion, not a tuition sticker price and not total cost. It is what completers actually borrowed, so it excludes grants, savings, family money, employer funding and living costs — which makes it a FLOOR on what the credential costs, never a ceiling. The low and high figures are the 25th and 75th percentiles across the institutions that report a figure for this programme, so a quarter of institutions sit below the low end. College Scorecard pools two award years into each figure; the release used here is dated 10 June 2026.
There is no national training length. Federal Entry-Level Driver Training rules set a curriculum but no minimum hours, so programmes run from about three weeks to a few months. Carrier-sponsored training is usually at the short end and comes with a contract that is expensive to break.
The licence renews with your state driving licence, and a DOT medical certificate has to stay current alongside it.
有多少人持有这个,有多少人在实地工作
工资数字
的 3,800,000 active interstate commercial driver's licence holders 计算在 2024, 联邦就业记录账户 2,062,040 从事本行业的工作, 54.3%. 剩下的叶子 1,737,960 中不包含此选项的控件。
这一差距是上限,而不是失业率。 持有证书与寻找工作不同。 差距包括:每一个进入管理、教学、销售、检查或联邦数据档案中不同职业下的相关工作的人;所有退休或离开而没有交出证书的人;每个以就业调查无法捕捉的方式从事非全时工作、代理或自营职业的人;以及所有以兼职、代理或自营职业者作为第二线持有另一份工作的人。因此差距在于CEIL关于有多少受过培训的人没有从事这一领域工作——实际数字较低,而不是失业人数的计算。 夫妇们确定的是公布的工资数字没有说明你所看到的薪酬站点。
双方都是常备计数。 持股人在某一时期的雇用日期,即同一数量,这是两个日期可以分开的唯一原因。
包括: Drivers holding a commercial driver's licence and authorised to drive across state lines, as counted by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. It EXCLUDES intrastate-only CDL holders, whom FMCSA counted separately at 2.1 million in a December 2023 snapshot; FMCSA publishes no combined total, so we do not add them. FMCSA states the figure to two significant figures and we carry it at that precision rather than inventing more.
分计: active interstate commercial driver's licence holders = 3,800,000 (Standing count of people holding the credential, FMCSA figure for 2024) · FMCSA, Non-Domiciled Commercial Driver's Licenses and Commercial Learner's Permits, 90 FR 46520 (29 September 2025) · 视图
One structural caveat pushes the gap wider than it really is: federal employment data counts employees, not the self-employed, so owner-operators driving their own trucks are largely missing from the employed side. They hold CDLs and they are working. The unaccounted-for holders below therefore overstate the number of licensed drivers not driving, by an amount nobody publishes.
训练结束的人 发生了什么事
完成四年后——方案代码的数字,而不只是这项工作
约 9,948 完成学业的人 Ground transportation (truck and bus driving), undergraduate certificate or diploma 四年之后,他不再学习, 834 没有任何记录显示收入的 & mdash; 8.4%. 工作工人的中位数 $52,118, 中间半介于 $28,154 和 $74,052.
“没有记录收入”不是“失业”。 衡量标准是没有任何工资记录和全年任何积极的自营职业收入,没有人被问及他们是否想要工作,因此,计数员将那些选择离开劳动力队伍的人——抚养子女、照顾子女、旅行、靠别人的收入生活、移居国外——与所有想要工作而没有工作的所有人一起关押,没有人公布这种分配,我们不会猜测它。它确实确定有多少人完成了这种培训,而且没有从中挣到任何收入,或者四年内从其他任何收入中挣到任何收入,这正是上面的工资数字无法告诉你的。
这个数字不是这个工作的具体数字。 联邦政府公布4位数颗粒度和无细微值的方案成果,而这个证书方案则与其他人共享代码。 因此,图中描述了在这个级别上根据代码完成任何工作的每个人,而不仅仅是继续这项工作的人。
方案代码包括的内容: CIP 49.02 is ground transportation: truck and bus driving, and also flagging and traffic control. Most completions are truck driving. One caveat matters more here than anywhere else on this page — this covers only the driving schools that take federal student aid, and most CDL training is paid in cash or funded by a carrier and never appears in federal data at all.
This covers only driving schools inside the federal student-aid system, which is a small and probably unrepresentative slice of CDL training — the same limitation as the cost figure above, and for the same reason.
谁是组: 接受联邦学生援助的全科学生——大约一半的美国本科生,另一半则不在此计量。 继续深造的人没有列。 教育部压制那些人数太少、无法公布和增加统计噪音的机构,因此,这是足够大、足以举报的机构的总数: 74 恢复的 80.4% 将新闻部对这一方案的本国计算。 减少最小的报告方案 0.1 百分点。

让你做什么
工资属于工作,不是证书,这些是您有资格从事的职业。
| 任务 | 需要吗? | 中中 | 就业人数 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers | Legally required to hold the job | $58,640 | 2,062,040 |

它自己付钱吗?
以中位数支付 $58,640. 我们出版的每个职业的就业加权中位数 $50,020, 所以持有这笔保险金的保险费是 $8,620 税前一年。
读起来比作一个普通的工作 而不是你的工作 基准是什么 所遗漏的
假设你得到这份工作 网站的每个回报数字都以受雇于工作为条件。 以上持证人人数的计算是用来测试的假设,而其他每个薪酬网站的假设是默默地作出的假设。
启动前需要什么
- A valid driving licence and a clean enough record
- A DOT medical certificate
- Age 21 for interstate driving
如果
- you cannot pass a DOT physical or a drug and alcohol test
- you cannot be away from home for days or weeks at a time
- you have disqualifying convictions — the federal Clearinghouse lists over 200,000 CDL holders in prohibited status
