​Jonathan was referred to SkillUP by MTC, the truck driver training program contractor at Mineral Area College. Jonathan had previously worked at a local manufacturing company – working swing shifts, with average wages. His goal was to increase his income to better support his family by becoming a Team Driver doing cross-country hauling. He completed the program and obtained his CDL license, with two job offers upon completion. He is scheduled to begin his new employment with Gilster – Mary Lee based out of Perryville, MO. He will earn $450/week for the first 4 weeks while completing their new hire program. He will then earn $0.28/mile as a Team Driver.
