    The programs we offer at PCI are focused on meeting the specific needs of employers so you can hit the ground running as soon as you graduate. We won't waste your time on subjects that aren't relevant to the skills you need for a new career.


  • Do I really need more than a high school diploma to get ahead in today's workspace?

    Simply put: Yes. New studies show that the value of continuing your education past a high school diploma truly pays off in both job security and in higher salaries. While effects vary by occupational field, the average Associate or Bachelor’s degree holder earns about $130 or $410 more per week, respectively, than a person who holds only a high school diploma.

  • What types of careers are available in alternative energy, trades & technical, medical, and health & fitness fields today?

    There are a variety of career opportunities in the alternative energy, medical, trades & technical, and health & fitness fields. In fact, a person's involvement in these fields is limited only by one's imagination. The list of potential careers includes: Electronics Installer, Electronics Repairer, Medical Assistant, Medical Records Clerk, Wind Turbine Technician, Personal Trainer and Massage Therapist, just to name a few. When you take into account that almost half of all careers that will exist in the next 10 years do not exist today, the possibilities for career development in these fields are easy to see.


  • What is Boot Camp?

    Many of our programs include a "Boot Camp" where students can test their newly developed knowledge and skills in realistic situations and environments. Each program that includes a Boot Camp has its own unique approach.

  • Why is training for careers so popular today?

    The greatest reason most people seek career training is because they see potential for careers in the medical, trades & technical, health & fitness, and alternative energy fields. In an era in which only 47 percent of Americans are satisfied with their jobs, more people are looking for satisfying careers that will offer them the opportunity to work in an exciting industry, under good working conditions with benefits and salary what supports a quality lifestyle.
