From Driver to Industry Leader
Big Klass CDL School was founded by a veteran truck driver and industry expert. Kyree McClish began his career as a driver, gaining valuable firsthand experience on the road. He later became a safety trainer for UPS, where he developed a passion for teaching others how to operate trucks safely and efficiently.
After years of success as a safety trainer, Kyree launched his own trucking company, where he recognized a critical lack of proper training that impeded new truckers from safely operating a CMV. There was a need for a high standard CDL training school that could deliver top-tier instruction all in one location. Determined to meet this need, Kyree established Big Klass CDL School—a facility designed to empower new drivers and trucking companies alike with superior training methods and unparalleled convenience.
