About this school
ETI Technical College is a private for-profit trade school located in Niles, Ohio, a large suburb.

Given the program mix — welding, medical assisting, and LPN training — this campus may suit students seeking shorter, hands-on career-training pathways rather than multi-year academic degrees, though specific program lengths are not reported here. Adult learners or career changers considering this path should verify current accreditation status and review detailed outcome data directly through the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard, and confirm tuition and program length by contacting the school directly, since cost figures are not reported for this campus in federal data.
