Salem, Oregon, USA
Daryen Ackerman is the Founder, CEO, and Lead Product Architect of DATA Industries. With a degree in Diesel Technology and years of experience in the diesel industry, he has dedicated his career to helping others succeed through education and practical workforce development.
As a former diesel instructor, he recognized the need for modern, accessible software that prepares students for real careers. That vision became DATA Industries — a technology company focused on building professional educational platforms for the transportation industry.

Company Vision

A Letter from Our Founder
When I entered the transportation industry, I quickly realized that many students and professionals were expected to learn from outdated systems that failed to match the pace of modern technology.
DATA Industries was created to change that.
Our mission is to build practical software that helps people learn faster, gain confidence, earn credentials, and build meaningful careers throughout the transportation industry.
Beginning with DATACDL and expanding into future educational platforms, our commitment remains the same: create software that genuinely helps people succeed.
Thank you for visiting DATA Industries and being part of this journey.
