Get Technical
Programs at Idaho’s technical colleges can take anywhere from six months to two years to complete, depending on what you are studying.
Regardless of whether you are just graduating from high school or are a working adult looking for further training, career advancement, or a career change, Idaho’s technical colleges can help you get cutting-edge training to land you in an in-demand career.
Just like with traditional academic college programs, you may be eligible to receive federal, state, school-sponsored, or private financial assistance to help cover the costs of training. And just as with college degree programs, you’ll need to start the process by filling out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to help determine your eligibility.
GPA requirements are similar to those at two-year colleges and college entrance exams are generally not required.
