We realize that employees come to PLS with different backgrounds and different skills. We also realize that, as you advance, your skills and knowledge will need to expand. That's why we place a high priority on employee training. We want you to have the skills you need to advance in your career. Here are just a few of the many training courses we offer to get you up to speed and keep you there.

Freight Solutions

The Freight Solutions division of PLS has an aggressive 90-day sales training program for their new AETs (Account Executive Trainees)!

This training program incorporates various learning formats and methodologies including, but not limited to: stand-up facilitation, on-the-job-training, self-directed learning, small group and individual activities.

All learning revolves around information specific to PLS, the transportation field, introduction to and advanced sales training. Only the latest information is presented to support the trainees and position them for success once they become AEs (Account Executives). Additional classes that are presented include: industry terminology, company specific software (used on a daily basis), US DOT regulations. Various other courses supporting the role of sales are also offered.

Aside from the 90-day sales training program, the full process to become an AE ranges from 6-12 months with a three month "mentoring" period.

At PLS, our management training is designed to help new and potential managers develop their interpersonal and organizational skills to become leaders who can develop the talent in their staffs and move the organization forward.

These skills are vital to our success because we believe that effective leadership at PLS creates leadership in our industry.
