CFI joins Crowder College in celebration of a successful partnership. Each year, Crowder College trains 300+ professional drivers for CFI thanks to training dollars from the MoAMP 2019 Grant. As a Crowder College Transport Training program partner for over 30 years, CFI believes that this apprenticeship program is a testament to how far a person can go with grit, honesty, and focus.

In addition to training many professional drivers, Crowder College trained 100 apprentices for CFI through the grant program. Of those 100 apprentices, 8 were military veterans, 60 had been previously unemployed, 15 were long-term unemployed, and 45 were underemployed or low-income. These graduates received over 300 industry-recognized credentials and a minimum of 6 hours of college credit.
