Do not under any circumstances be employed by two companies at the same time. You risk termination from both.
If dropping notice the day before and you have flying scheduled soon (most especially if it's a non-business day) I would call and email the crew scheduling supervisor and give notice directly... that ensures they can't try to hold your responsible when you no-show. Then leave a VM and email for CP as noted above. Also read company policy to see if there are any special requirements for resignation.
Record the phone calls if legal to do so in your state (probably is if you advise the person on the other end).
That way you have documentation if Old Employer erroneously shows as still employed and you get fired from New Employer. Hopefully you can force Old Employer to correct the record, and hopefully then New Employer would re-instate you. If not you'd have to sue them both, but you'd probably have plenty of time on your hands to do that.

Yes and this is a potential problem if you give very short notice on say Saturday night... the PRD lady might be on vacation next week.
I'd log into PRD yourself on the morning of class date, and if they still show you employed I'd advise the indoc staff that it's in error (and that you have the receipts).
