Application Process
The application process is simple and free. First you’ll complete our short intake form online. Next you’ll get an email from the training center you select, inviting you to come in to complete paperwork. After that, you will set up a time for an interview. After all of the application materials have been submitted, and your interview is complete, a decision will be made about whether or not you are a good fit for the program.
Once you submit your application, check your email for a notification it was received. Give us a week to review it and then a training coordinator should be in touch. If a week has passed and you haven’t heard from someone, please contact your local training center.
