Upon research, it does not appear that DMV received any WIOA funding for CDL classes. FYI, DMV only provides school bus driver training.

Dear Mr. Homan,

Thank you for your response. Can you please advise on which North Carolina department directs WIOA funding and which department oversees CDL training?

Thank you.

I had one follow-up question to my FOIA request.

Can you please share if any CDL programs in the state of North Carolina received any funding from the North Carolina Department of Transportation or any of its regional offices, programs, projects, etc.?

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Rachel Premack

I checked with our CDL Manager and he was not aware of any programs.
