History

The South Kansas City location has been teaching career education programs since 1953 when it first opened its doors as Electronics Institute, in Missouri. In 1992, Jeffery C. Freeman and Scott F. Freeman purchased the school and began expanding its programs. The school changed its name in September 2002 to Pinnacle Career Institute.

The Lawrence location was originally the Center for Training in Business and Industry. In 1998, Scott F. and Jeffrey C. Freeman acquired the school, and it soon became Lawrence Career College. On February 3, 2003, the school was changed to Pinnacle Career Institute to join its sister school in South Kansas City.

In January 2005, Pinnacle Career Institute started teaching distance education programs through a web-based Learning Management System. Online education is delivered year-round.

The North Kansas City campus opened in April 2008.

Today, PCI offers programs in Alternative Energy, Business, Health & Fitness, Medical, and Trades & Technical.
