What US Engineering League does

US Engineering League, operating as Chasewood Learning, is a privately held, for-profit STEM education provider founded in 2013 and headquartered at 1701 Quincy Ave, Suite 9, Naperville, Illinois. The company serves K-12 students ages 6 to 18 through a three-pillar program: adaptive after-school STEM courses covering robotics, coding, engineering, and technology; competitive robotics teams participating in WRO, VEX, FIRST LEGO League, FIRST Tech Challenge, FIRST Robotics Challenge, SumoBot League, and Matrix AI Robot Cup; and year-round STEM camps including summer programming. Curriculum is described by founder Will Wong as persistent and adaptive, designed to evolve with each student from elementary entry through high school graduation.

The business runs on a direct-to-consumer model delivered primarily from its single Naperville facility, with online registration via chasewoodlearning.com and supporting presence on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. The company operates without disclosed institutional capital, partnerships, or alliances, and reports 11-50 employees with no public revenue or pricing. Founder Will Wong is the public-facing leader, with Derrick Kreimann listed as Chief Executive Officer, suggesting early operational layering beneath the founder. Public visibility is regional, anchored by an NCTV17 business profile and recurring WRO competition participation including 2023 International Friendly, National Championships, and US Open events, plus a March 2026 Competition Roundup.

Revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed but appear to follow a fee-for-service tuition structure across courses, team registrations, and camps. The technology stack consists of standard educational robotics platforms (LEGO-based, VEX, custom kits) and consumer-grade web delivery via Wix-based web properties; no proprietary software platform, app, API, or AI model is disclosed. The company's competitive position rests on its 12-year operating history, multi-program competition ecosystem, and the long 6-18 age window, offset by single-site geographic concentration in the Naperville, IL submarket.
