Founded in 2011 by Ernesto Gutierrez Jr., the Professional Trucking Association Group (PTAG) embodies his remarkable dedication to safe driving and commitment to helping others.
With an exceptional track record of 2.5 million safe driving miles as a professional truck driver, Ernesto retired in 2017 only to continue his driving career by accumulating over 1 million safe miles as a rideshare driver for Uber and Lyft.
Renowned as one of the safest drivers on the road, Ernesto is not just a skilled driver but also a devoted father to six children and a loving husband.
Ernesto's unwavering passion for safe driving and helping others has driven him wanting to establish a truck driving school and career development center aimed at assisting veterans and less fortunate individuals.
The PTAG team is tirelessly working to secure investors and gather resources to turn this vision into reality, with the goal of providing valuable opportunities and support for those in need, thereby creating a brighter future for all involved.
With a profound desire to help those facing challenges, Ernesto is resolute in his mission to create thousands of opportunities tailored to disadvantaged veterans and individuals struggling financially.
By offering a supportive environment for those without the necessary credit score or financial means to access traditional trade schools, Ernesto aims to empower and uplift individuals who have encountered barriers in their path to personal and professional success.
Driven by a strong commitment to positive change, we are dedicated to obtaining the funding and resources essential to realize Ernesto's vision. Our team is fully focused on aiding individuals in need and guiding them on their path to success.
We eagerly anticipate witnessing the transformation and achievements of our graduates as they evolve into thriving members of society. Ultimately, seeing our graduates emerge as influential contributors to the world, leaving a lasting impact on their communities and beyond.
