PROGRAM LENGTH

Apex students can complete their training in as little as 7 months. Many of our students express a desire to enter the field quickly. This program length means many students can move through their program at a pace that works for them—while fast-tracking their time in school, compared to a two-year community college or four-year university.

By offering training in 7 months, Apex tries to help minimize disruptions for students who juggle busy work schedules with family commitments.

JOB PLACEMENT ASSISTANCE

You’re pursuing hands-on training schools because you’re ready for a new career. By completing an Apex program, you show that you’re ready to start an entry-level job in your field. Our job placement assistance team in NYC will help you search for career options that fit your training and goals.
