"I chose EITC because they were willing to work with me, my family, and my work. They have an excellent staff that is there to help you better yourself and achieve your goals."

"I worked for a company for 26 years and when they went out of business I wasn't sure what I was going to do. I looked into the EITC nursing program and decided to go for it. I received an excellent education and look forward to a career as a nurse. I'm 47 and I'm proof you are never too old to learn!"
