Education Model

The Best of Both Worlds
We train the way the industry trains.
Blended Learning at UTI
The integration of digital instruction, with hands-on training in labs and out-of-class assignments, is designed to prepare students with skills that align with the industry demand.

At UTI, our mission is to prepare technicians for the careers of tomorrow. These industries are continuously evolving, which is why our training focuses on equipping students with skills that align with both current and future employer demands.

Each one of UTI’s programs incorporates digital and hands-on instruction. The role of a modern-day technician looks much different than before—so it’s important for our graduates to possess the hands-on skills and technical knowledge needed to succeed in the field.
