- We are based in one of the most convenient areas of the Chicago metro—close to major highways and easy for students to reach.

- Opportunities for Growth
- The CDL training market in Illinois is stable with slow but positive long-term growth. Illinois remains a major trucking hub with above-average driver employment and many annual openings. Nationally, the industry is in a cyclical freight downturn after the COVID boom, but long-term projections still show steady demand and high replacement needs for qualified drivers.
