Washington Technical Institute (WTI) is a 100% online career college offering accredited undergraduate certificate programs and college-level general education courses. Our programs are designed to prepare students for real-world success, whether they are looking to advance in their careers or continue their education at another institution.

Since 1999, WTI—formerly Washington Online Learning Institute—has provided high-quality, career-focused education to students in all 50 states and overseas. Our general education courses are college-level and often transferable, giving students the flexibility to apply their credits toward further academic goals.

WTI was founded on the belief that practical, affordable education should be available to anyone looking to advance their career—without the burden of student loan debt.

Our flexible online programs allow students to gain in-demand skills in fields such as information technology, paralegal studies, criminal justice, medical billing and coding, business, healthcare, and more.

Over the years, WTI has built a solid reputation as a leader in online career education. We were the first career institution to earn regional accreditation through the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools CESS, a distinction that continues to ensure our programs meet rigorous academic standards. Our highly qualified faculty and dedicated student services team support learners every step of the way, and our graduates go on to work in top law firms, government agencies, and leading corporations across the country.

At WTI, students join an interactive and dynamic learning community that provides the flexibility to earn a certificate or diploma without disrupting their personal or professional lives.
