About Us

Driver Resource Center (DRC) is a network of CDL training schools operating under four brands: MTC Truck Driver Training, ACE Driving Academy, CDL Training Services, and Kansas Truck Driving School — across 10 campuses nationwide. Every school in the network follows the same ELDT-registered curriculum, instructor standards, and career support, so no matter which campus you attend, you get the same DRC-backed training.

Our Four Brands

MTC Truck Driver Training MTC operates five campuses — Akron, OH; Cape Girardeau, MO; St. Louis (Saint Ann), MO; Park Hills (Leadington), MO; and Tulsa, OK — and is one of the largest school brands in the DRC network.

ACE Driving Academy ACE Driving Academy trains students at two campuses in Greer, SC and Waco, TX, serving the Southeast and Texas regions.

CDL Training Services CDL Training Services operates two Kentucky campuses, in Elizabethtown and Paducah, with deep roots in the regional trucking industry.

Kansas Truck Driving School Kansas Truck Driving School (KTDS) has trained CDL drivers in Wichita, KS since 2012, with more than 30,000 graduates to date.

Each school operates under its own name and serves its local community directly, but all four are part of one network: Driver Resource Center. See all 10 DRC locations →
