What Our Students Say
“I bought a boat last summer and had no idea how to tow it safely. This course walked me through everything step by step. Backed into the boat ramp on my first try!”
“We just got a travel trailer and I was terrified to tow it. After TowPro Academy I feel 100% confident on the highway. The backing module alone was worth the $50.”
“Clear, practical, and no fluff. I’ve been towing for years but still picked up tips I didn’t know. Great value for the price.”

Do I need a CDL or special license to tow a trailer?
No. TowPro Academy is designed for everyday truck owners — not commercial drivers. As long as your trailer falls within your truck's towing capacity and meets your state's weight limits, you can tow legally with a standard driver's license.
What kind of trailers does this course cover?
TowPro Academy covers all common trailer types including boat trailers, travel trailers, campers, RVs, utility trailers, dump trailers, horse trailers, and flatbeds.
Is this course available on-demand or is it live?
The course is 100% on-demand. You get instant lifetime access to all 55 video lessons and the full eBook the moment you purchase. Watch at your own pace, on any device.
How long does it take to complete the course?
Most students complete the full course in 4–6 hours, but you can go as fast or as slow as you like. The content is broken into short, focused modules.
What if I already have some towing experience?
Many of our students have towed before but want to fill in the gaps — especially with backing up, sway control, and weight distribution. Even experienced towers find new tips they didn't know.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
We stand behind TowPro Academy completely. If you don't feel more confident towing after going through the course, reach out to us at jeff@towproacademy.com and we'll make it right.
