FTA enters into partnerships with highly-respected leaders in the industry--to provide benefits and additional value to Association membership. Below are our Preferred Partners, who offer exclusive incentives and benefits to members of Florida Trucking Association.
FLEETFORCE TRUCK DRIVER TRAINING
The FleetForce/FTA Prehire Program matches qualified aspiring drivers with participating potential employers (open to FTA members only), who then provide scholarships to obtain a CDL at no cost to the student. As the fastest growing CDL training school in the state, FleetForce has a 100% graduation rate, with 25% women graduates.
DRIVERS LEGAL PLAN
Drivers Legal Plan was designed in 1991 by trucking company executives who recognized that with the advent of the CDL, unnecessary traffic convictions were going to have a deep and detrimental effect on their companies’ safety profiles and driver retention records. With DOT audits, CSA ratings, consistently changing CDL requirements, skyrocketing insurance and driver replacement costs, the days of “fire and rehire” are ending.
The basic concept of the Plan is simple: to make the highest quality CDL legal representation available to the driver force, and to make it affordable.
