With the need for truckers in southeast Texas and a waiting list of people who seek qualified training, the Lamar Institute of Technology’s Truck Driving Academy has received some assistance. They have received $1.1 million in state funding to upgrade its equipment and facilities in order to admit more students and help fill the need for truckers. This new expansion will help them go from 30 students trained per year to 90.
