Read What ETI Students Are Saying

"What drove me to ETI was the lab size. The labs are huge and unlike a lot of places you could go to that don't have the resources that ETI does. The teachers really do care about me and my future. That is what ETI is about. It's your future to go after and achieve."

— Max Woods, ETI HVAC/R Student

"If you want to change your life fast choose a trade like HVAC/R or welding at ETI. You don't go to school to stay home. You go to school to get a job and get the ball rolling. This is what ETI offers."

— Joshua Ramos, ETI Welding Instructor
