Austin smiles while holding his CDL-A certificate while standing in front of a red Road Warrior Truck Driving School truck in Gaylord, MI.

Austin was working as a seasonal snowplow driver when he began exploring ways to build a more stable, year-round career. Knowing that earning a CDL-A would open new opportunities, he turned to Michigan Works! Northeast Consortium for assistance.


Through tuition assistance and personalized career guidance, Austin enrolled at Road Warrior Truck Driving School, where he successfully earned his CDL-A license. The new credential quickly paid off. Upon completing training, Austin was promoted to a CDL-A Driver and Laborer position with Earthplan Landscaping, allowing him to transition from seasonal employment into a more stable career.


Austin's story demonstrates how investing in new skills can create long-term opportunities and greater career stability.
