Express-1 Expedited Solutions Inc., Buchanan, Mich., said it is now offering tuition reimbursement and scholarships for courses in an accredited college program that truckers can take in the comfort of their cabs.

Truck drivers can earn two-year college associate degrees and certificates issued through Chattanooga State Technical Community College in Chattanooga, Tenn. by taking courses as varied as homeland security and criminal justice to small business management with emphasis on the transportation industry. Chattanooga State and TransMarkets Technologies LLC, a Chattanooga-based trucking software and systems provider, developed the InCab University program as a response to truck drivers who wanted to further their education during idle time waiting at unloading docks, maintenance facilities and truckstops.
Specializing in same-day and next-day pick-up and delivery, Express-1 provides expedited transportation services in the U.S. and Canada to more than 1,000 organizations ranging from mid-sized to Fortune 500 companies.
Drivers in good standing with Express-1 for more than 90 days will be reimbursed 75 percent of their tuition if they complete their courses within the required 16 weeks and earn passing grades. Express-1 also is offering two scholarships that pay 100 percent of the drivers first class. Drivers can access courses through a laptop computer and start their courses at any time, but they must complete the study work within the 16-week period to receive credit and reimbursement.
