ACME - used to love the stuff Wile E. Coyote used to get from that company! Amazing the roadrunner had any chance at all.

:mrgreen:

Never been to any Locksmithing school, so can't help you there. Good luck!

I took their course in March of 2013. Excellent course and worth the money! They are the only locksmith school in Illinois, and one of the best I've found.

After you guys took the course what was your next step? Did you challenge the state licensing test? I am taking the acme class in November and curious what everyone's route was after the class was completed? Thanks all!

As mentioned elsewhere the locksmith test is the same test given by ALOA, might be a good reason to join up with them
