Admissions Process

Selecting an appropriate training facility and program can become confusing. We believe the decision to be made is serious and strive to assist all applicants by maintaining an open-door policy. We provide a formal tour of the campus, access to instructors and advisors and encourage your questions. Our interview process determines basic qualifications, interest and motivation prior to enrollment. An appointment for the interview is required to avoid unnecessary waiting.
