THE RETAIN℠ PROGRAM

The CDL driver development plan, developed to solve the industry’s most persistent challenge.

THE ORIGIN OF RETAIN℠

The RETAIN℠ system, the CDL driver development plan, was developed to solve the industry’s most persistent challenge.

The RETAIN℠ Breakthrough:

The program emerged from Norris Beren’s frustration with the transportation industry’s acceptance of 80%+ driver turnover as “normal”.

After analyzing thousands of driver employment patterns and interviewing hundreds of motor carrier executives, he identified a critical disconnect: companies were hiring based on paperwork instead of behavioral predictors.

This led to the development of the comprehensive R.E.T.A.I.N.℠ system. It has since been validated across hundreds of implementations, consistently delivering 40% retention improvements.

Today, RETAIN℠ represents the industry’s most comprehensive approach to solving the driver shortage through workforce development rather than endless recruiting cycles.
