Career Training at Lincoln Tech's Campus in New Britain Connecticut

Lincoln Tech offers multiple pathways to better professional futures

Career training in the New Britain, Connecticut area is a hot topic these days.  The New England job market is growing, with tens of thousands of positions projected to be added by 2026 in the skilled trades and healthcare support*.  And that’s just a sample of the fields that are expanding.

These industries offer great opportunities and competitive wages, too.  Electricians, for example, averaged more than $27/hour in 2017** – well above the state’s minimum wage.  Connecticut is also happens to be a Top 10 state for entry-level pay rates in career fields such as HVAC , Medical Assisting and Practical Nursing.  In the New Britain area, you’ll find a school with the career training programs you need to get started; Lincoln Tech, which has helped build the region’s workforce for more than 50 years.

New Britain Campus Provides Training in Electrical, HVAC, Nursing and More

Whether you want to enter a skilled trade that can have you working out in the field each day, or you’re driven to a patient-focused role in the fast-growing healthcare industry, you’ll find the training and career support you need at Lincoln Tech’s New Britain campus.  Four out of five graduates were hired in their field of study last year***, thanks to the school’s close relationships with area employers.

The campus can also help you connect with their employer partners that have a national footprint. Johnson Controls International (JCI), for example, sponsors an electrical training lab on campus and plans to seek out Lincoln Tech grads for its open positions in the electrical and HVAC industries.  A national partnership between Lincoln Tech and JCI was announced last year, and this spring the New Britain campus cut the ribbon on its new JCI training lab. 

Through HVAC training, you can also qualify to apply for enhanced training with Hussmann, a national leader in commercial refrigeration, which is seeking HVAC technicians across the country and sponsors the TechX training facility at Lincoln Tech’s Grand Prairie, TX campus.  (If you’re accepted into the program, Hussmann will even pay for your transportation, tuition, room and board!)  Last year a graduate of the New Britain campus became one of the first students to complete the Hussmann program and began a career with the global leader!

Beyond learning hands-on skills from industry-experienced instructors, career training at Lincoln Tech’s New Britain campus also includes academic support, and financial assistance is available for those who qualify. And while the campus itself has been at its location since 1968, its roots are actually much deeper: it started as the Hartford campus of the New England Technical Institute of Connecticut in 1940.  With a history like that, it’s easy to see why employers trust graduates of Lincoln Tech’s New Britain campus, and why it enjoys a reputation for putting students first and helping them launch rewarding new careers every year!

If you’re ready to start on a new career path, then it’s time to get hands-on training.  Put your potential to work at Lincoln Tech’s New Britain campus, and prepare to enter some of the region’s most exciting, in-demand fields!

*** As reported to the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC) in the campus’ 2018 G&E Report.
