Why work and train in Shreveport, Louisiana?
Shreveport is the third largest city in Louisiana and is a wonderful place to live with beautiful parks and lakes, a low cost of living, almost non-existent traffic issues, a vibrant arts scene and home to dozens of locally owned restaurants in addition to national chains. Located at the crossroads of Texas and Arkansas, living in Shreveport provides easy access to cities such as Dallas/Ft. Worth, Hot Springs and numerous Louisiana cities.
Shreveport, and our sister city Bossier, have so much to offer that you have to experience it.
