I attended PTI and graduated in 2006 with an electronics engineering associates degree. They have an advertised 90 something percent placement, which will land you a great $8 an hour career at best buy. The campus is beautiful the building is great, the education is somewhat brief but you get out what you put in. With todays economy people who have 4 year degrees and years of experience are taking the entry level positions that a school like PTI would land you... it's not to say you couldnt get a good job, but they put on a spectacular show to get you in and take your money! If I could go back in time, I wouldn't have gone to PTI, but persued a 4 year degree.......

it was a great place to learn a trade. the faculty and administration were very helpful and caring. i would suggest you consider it if you feel you do not need a BS for your life goals.
The campus is in Oakdale not Oakmont. That is a big difference considering that they are on opposite sides of the city.
