Value of a Certificate or Diploma

This is a smart and quick way to enter the workforce and make good money. Our diploma and certificate programs are a fast track to successful careers in the trades, technology, healthcare, and more. Enjoy hands-on training, expert instruction, and incredibly affordable education. Then reap the benefits. 

On average, those who hold an EICC certificate make $4,300 more each year than people who never attended college. And those who earn a diploma typically earn even more. *

Our programs are highly respected by local and national employers, who prioritize skills and experience over a four-year degree. And they need qualified workers, fast. Leave here and put your industry-standard skills to work. You deserve this. 

Let's get started. Workforce training is available in both credit and non-credit programs.

You need a high school diploma or HiSET/GED to enroll, and you may have to complete some placement testing. You are awarded college credits for your courses, and you can use those to earn an associate's degree from EICC. You can also transfer those credits to a four-year college or university.
