Analysis
NAICS 6114 is the 2022 industry group for business schools and computer and management training, part of 611 (Educational Services). Census lists 20 example activities under it in the official index.
County Business Patterns counts 9,794 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 85,432 people at an average annual payroll of $83,166 per employee (72nd percentile of national industries). 72% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 14% and employment rose 28%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
