FORT WORTH, Texas – Gatlin Education Services announced today it is now offering a Freight Broker course and is currently taking enrollments. The 150-hour course will be offered solely through Gatlin’s partnership with major colleges and universities.
The program will provide students with the necessary skills to succeed in the freight brokerage and logistics business. Freight Brokering is currently one of the top home-based businesses as well as the largest growing sector of the transportation industry, according to Entrepreneur magazine and The Wall Street Journal.
To provide a leading course, designed by successful freight brokers, Gatlin has partnered with Brooke Transportation Training Solution’s, one of the first and best freight broker training schools in the nation. The online, self-paced course prepares students to be the dealmaker between manufacturers who need goods moved and truckers who can move those goods. Students learn the “how-to’s” of building up a freight brokerage or agency, from licensing to operations, to sales and marketing. Participants acquire the basics of how to run a freight brokerage or agency with instruction that includes licensing, operations, job requirements, transportation industry trends and prospects, legal issues, benefits, ensuring cash flow, finding shippers, and more. Upon successfully finishing the course, students receive a certificate of completion and are ready to join the $400 billion-plus shipping industry.
Freight brokerage is an ideal business for truck drivers who want to advance in the industry, entrepreneurs in search of a profitable home business and the immobile and qualified military veterans, who are provided government subsidies to take the training.
