In six weeks, learn to find and book loads, negotiate with brokers, manage paperwork, and keep a carrier's day moving.
Alexandra came to the U.S. as an immigrant. She understands the language barrier, long hours, and bad advice. She built DTC to teach dispatch clearly, with real practice.
Understand agreements, broker packets, equipment, and the details to verify before working a load.
Read lanes and markets, use load boards, compare rates, and account for the miles that affect profit.
Ask better questions, speak with brokers, protect the carrier's terms, and confirm the load accurately.
Handle appointments, updates, rate confirmations, PODs, delays, and the records that keep work organized.
