Institute for Business & Technology

With our modern facilities and latest instructional materials, the Institute for Business and Technology provides our students with a comprehensive and current career education.

Our faculty members not only have an academic background in the subjects they teach, but they also possess real-world experience in the workforce. This provides our students with a foundation that prepares them to become competent individuals in a career they enjoy.

All medical programs include an externship at an approved site upon completion of the required coursework. The externship provides the student with an actual work environment in which to apply skills learned in the classroom.

IBT's trademark is its short, affordable programs, small class sizes and hands-on training. The college provides a friendly, supportive learning environment in which students come first.

Guidance and Advising

The staff at the Institute for Business and Technology makes every effort to maintain close communication with its students. Students have access to faculty and administrative staff for both vocational and academic advising.

Students experiencing personal problems, which require professional counseling, will be referred to the appropriate agencies.

Student Employment

The training schedule at IBT can accommodate most working students. The Placement department will assist students in obtaining part-time or full-time employment to help them meet their living expenses during their school training. These jobs are usually not in the field for which the student is being trained. Positions are generally in food service, custodial work, merchandising and general labor.
