Application

EGTI’s programming is designed for individuals whose academic, social, communication and adaptive skills are affected due to a disability. Most applicants would have received special education services in the K-12 setting and exited their secondary school with a diploma, GED or certificate of completion.  EGTI is a certificate program (not an accredited college degree program). Students will exit their chosen training session with one or more types of certificates depending upon the program selected.

To ensure that EGTI is the right fit, we require a completed application packet. Once the application packet has been submitted, an in person interview and assessment will be scheduled. Click the link below to download the application packet. Please refer to the Application Checklist on page three to view items required.
