The Georgia Department of Driver Services offers one of the most flexible licensing processes in the country. The first step is passing a written exam that covers Georgia's driving laws and other basic information. If you attend a truck driving course, which is highly recommended, you can prepare for the written exam during the classroom part of your course. However, you can also get ready by studying the Commercial Driver's Manual.

There are two ways to get ready for your driver's exam. You can either take your driver's exam right after passing your written test or get a learner's permit. With a truck driving training program, you'll get all the behind-the-wheel experience you need to successfully pass your skills exam.

As you choose a driver training course, you can look for one that fits your schedule and offers lots of driving experience. The state of Georgia does not have any training requirements that you have to meet.
