Celadon has announced the opening of its state-of-the-art, $7 million, 61,100 sq ft. new driver training center in Indianapolis.
The campus features dorms, a cafeteria, workout room, basketball/racquet court, Wi-Fi and a driver training road course.
“Driver recruitment and driver retention is a long term challenge within the industry,” said Paul Will, president and chief executive officer of Celadon.
“We realize that establishing the Quality Drivers school and the Celadon training program are the next logical steps in ensuring that we have sufficient numbers of qualified drivers to fill our seats and meet our growth expectations. Logistically, locating the driver training school in Indiana is a sound business decision that provides access to the state’s vast resources, but it also gives Celadon another opportunity to give back to the state of Indiana by contributing significant jobs numbers right here in Indianapolis. We’re extremely happy and proud to continue our commitment to the local and state economies.”
The driving school is located at 9050 E. 33rd St. near its Indianapolis headquarters campus.
New students will spend 5 weeks at the training center. Over the five weeks, time will be spent both in the classroom and on the road.
