Birmingham Freightliner and Western Star Training Program

Birmingham Freightliner and Western Star Training

Peach State Truck Centers, Birmingham Freightliner and Western Star’s parent company, employs three full-time trainers and has two dedicated training facilities in Pendergrass, Georgia and Austell, Georgia. At these facilities Peach State and Birmingham Freightliner  & Western Stars technicians, as well as techs from other Daimler dealers and Peach State and Birmingham customers, receive state-of-the-art hands-on training courses to stay up to date on the latest technology in the industry. In order to fulfill our Vision of being the dealer of choice and employer of choice in our markets, we feel that training is one of the crucial ways we can stay ahead of the changes that occur in the commercial truck industry every year.

Mentor Program:

Birmingham Freightliner and Western Star feels that investing time and money in its employees is always a good choice. With the technician mentor program, we are able to bring in technicians right out of school and teach them everything they need to know about industry standards on the job. Many technicians who go through our program have reached career and financial success quickly because of the time their mentor spends with them each week. Clear goals are set when a new technician is hired, so they know exactly what’s expected of them. That’s a win-win for Birmingham Freightliner & Western Star and new technicians looking to get their foot in the door.
