The Dixie Tech Experience
Your education doesn’t have to be by the book. Dixie Tech offers unique, affordable pathways that will give you the training and experience you need to jump right into the workforce. We provide a variety of programs, such as digital design, mobile app development, electrical, plumbing, practical nursing, EMT, welding, collision repair, culinary arts, and more, that focus on the skills you will use in your field.
Dixie Tech collaborates with professionals from each industry to keep our programs growing and adapting alongside the job market. We stay up to date with the latest technology and innovations from each industry to ensure that we are preparing you for success in the workforce. Instructors train you with the support and hands on experience needed to grasp the concepts and skills that employers are looking for.
Each of our programs offers a quick and cost-effective way to get into the workforce and a fast-paced curriculum that will leave students with a knowledge base and understanding of the skills necessary for success in their field. Most programs can be finished in under a year, and over 90 percent of our students obtain a job in their field of study either during their education or soon after graduation.
Dixie Tech programs are set up into cohorts, where a group of students start together, learn together, and eventually graduate together. Each cohort works and learns in a consistent learning environment one class at a time as the students train hands-on to understand industry related skills. Students are given the opportunity to foster relationships with others that are going into the same industry and gain a support system made up of peers and advisors.
As students learn in cohorts, they get to know one another and create relationships that will last a lifetime. Smaller class sizes also allow instructors to interact with students and help them every step of the way. Cohorts build a sense of community and inclusivity throughout the educational process and provide students with a network of relationships that expand into the workforce and beyond.
Our goal at Dixie Tech is to make our programs accessible to anyone looking for a way to better their lives—whether that means learning the skills for a career change, finding a more fulfilling job, getting training that will help earn a better paycheck, landing a job that will create stability for the future, having skills to fall back on, or finding the right career fit. Dixie Tech programs train you with the knowledge and hands-on skills you need to make life-changing career choices.
Dixie Tech has a team of financial aid advisors that help students navigate funding opportunities to attend college. Many of our programs qualify for financial aid through federal Pell grants. We also offer multiple scholarships for students and accept donations from the community.
