Transportation Business Career Opportunities
The transportation business offers extensive career opportunities for those with the right qualifications, education and experience. Employers in the transportation industry favor job candidates with college degrees for management and administrative positions, and experience in the industry is a definite plus.
Transportation-related businesses and occupations include logistics, trucking supply sales, parts manufacturers, medical examinations and drug testing, and private safety and security inspection services. Government agencies related to the industry include state and federal departments of transportation. And of course, every independent driver is a small business operator.
Ready to change lanes? A business degree will help
If you are a licensed driver, and are interested in management or small business ownership, consider enhancing your CDL and experience with a 2-year business degree. You will learn how to prepare or analyze a financial statement, practice your communication skills in a group setting, and evaluate management and marketing strategies.
Globe University's sister school, Minnesota School of Business offers an exceptional program exclusively for licensed drivers and heavy equipment operators—the Associate in Applied Science in Transportation Business degree. Qualified students receive college credit for training from a licensed school, and can earn the two-year degree in just 18 months. The program is offered online as well as at several campuses.
