Lincoln Tech in Indianapolis, IN

Welcome to Indianapolis – home of the Indy 500!

Some of Indiana’s most in-demand skills can’t be built at a four-year college. Building them means training hands-on with the same equipment used by the professionals; it means side-by-side guidance and mentoring from industry-experienced instructors; it means training with a curriculum developed to meet the needs of each specific field. All of this, and a lot more, is waiting for you at Lincoln Tech in Indianapolis, IN.

Students from around the country come to Indianapolis to train at Lincoln Tech. Our campus has been a cornerstone of the city’s professional training scene since 1961, and we’re located less than 10 miles from spots like the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of the Indy 500, and the Indianapolis Speedrome.
