SMART
Today I'm going to present the OTR Academy's SMART principle. 

SMART is an acronym created by CDL Steve to reflect 5 very important foundational principles necessary for success as an Over-The-Road commercial driver. 

S.M.A.R.T. stands for the following words:

• SAFE
• MOTIVATED
• ATTITUDE
• RELATIONSHIPS, and
• TIME

Hi, this is CDL Steve…
Welcome to the OTR Academy.

Truck Drivers working Over-the-Road, or OTR, are the lifeblood of North American commerce. Unfortunately, many long haul drivers leave the profession within the first three years. Most who remain beyond that 3rd year, go on to enjoy successful truck driving careers.

OTR Academy was founded to help new CDL holders overcome career-threatening challenges they face while driving OTR. 

We’re here to help you get your Over-the-Road career off to a strong promising start.
