Pittsburgh Technical Institute
Pittsburgh Technical Institute (PTI) is a private two-year post-secondary school in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA offering associate degrees and short-term certificate programs.
PTI has two locations in western Pennsylvania: the primary 180-acre (0.73 km) North Fayette Campus in Oakdale, which first opened in July 2000, and the PTI-Cranberry Center at the Regional Learning Alliance in Cranberry Woods. The institution first opened its doors in 1946 as a single-discipline career training school. Since then, it has expanded course offerings through its School of Building Technology, School of Business, School of Criminal Justice, School of Design, School of Healthcare, and School of Technology. Through PTI's Center for Certification and Adult Learning (CCAL), nontraditional students prepare for the workforce and take advantage of shorter, more flexible evening schedules, some with online components.
