"Driving that is useful to society"
The
Continue to raise

Our founder, Noboru Tanioka, opened a driving school at Osaka Joto Commercial School (now Osaka University of Commerce) with the aim of nurturing many "businesspeople who will be useful to society."

It all started when we thought that "driving skills will be necessary for business people in the future" in an era when roads were not even in good condition.

Osaka, a city of commerce, has a deeply rooted spirit of supporting one's family, contributing to society, and enriching the country through business.

Carrying on that spirit, Yaenosato Driving School began in 1952 as the driving school attached to Osaka University of Commerce.

Since then, we have adopted the philosophy of "nurturing traffic professionals who are useful to society," and are working to nurture drivers who do not cause accidents and who are considerate and kind.

Even now, with roots in the local community and boasting the highest number of graduates and achievements in Osaka Prefecture, the founding spirit remains unchanged.
