freight broker training

Freight broker training does not have to be neither a long drawn out process nor an expensive one. While getting the proper freight broker training should be of utmost importance, the cost should still be reasonable. Yet there are schools and academies out there that are charging people thousands of dollars for a weekend seminar. How about a three day class that you have to pay traveling expenses to get to, not to mention your motel, meals and rental car if you fly out. And let's not forget the master broker certificate that some of them claim you will receive. But look it up for yourself, according to the FMCSA (federal motor carrier safety administration) code 371.2 and 386.2, there iso such thing as a master broker!It is called a PROPERTY BROKER! Now, do you want the old school of learning from thirty years ago or do you want the more up to date training including today's computer technology? Do you want an outline to follow and have to figure out what's in between on your own or do you want REAL training? Here is a thought to ponder while you are in one of these other classes: somebody broke into the back of the trailer and stole one hundred tv sets while the driver was getting a shower. He calls you at 2:30 am to tell you. If you don't know what to do, are you going to be able to call your instructor at that time of the morning to ask him/her for advice? What about when you hear "sorry, that was in the beginning of the class and that class is over but you can pay for a refresher course." What then? And yes it does happen.Underpasses in New York get flooded all the time just for trucks to get stuck and their trailers to get ripped off. Unless of course you are just plain bored and have lots of money to spend, training should come from someone who knows the ropes, whose prices are reasonable and who will be there to answer your calls at 2:30 in the morning. Wake up people! Glitter and sparkle does not mean gold! Freight broker training can be done right without costing you a small fortune.Copyright2008 Jack C. Martin
