Our Instructor program provides the education and technical skills you need to not only help students shape their own success, but more importantly, prepare you for a long-term career in the industry. This curriculum focuses on developing lesson plans, preparing exams, facilitating classroom interaction, hands-on skills training, developing course outlines and preparing students for State Boards. Additionally, students will receive business and marketing skills training to round-out this full spectrum education.
