Looking for a technical training program in the state of Minnesota? You are in luck! With a whopping 14 state-supported technical colleges, there are programs all over the state that will fit your needs. With great communities and such wide access, a technical training program is within your reach.

Alexandria Technical College
Alexandria Technical College is located in Alexandria and has quick and easy access to the local mall, restaurants, shopping, and lakes. Outdoor activities are abound for those who want them. If you are looking for degree programs or a certificate, they are both offered here. An Associates Degree in many programs, such as Accounting, Marketing and Paralegal Studies can be had – or, for those wanting a shorter period of study in a more concentrated area, there are many certificate and diploma programs in areas such as Welding Technology, Marina & Small Engine Mechanic, and Carpentry. Financial Aid is available to all who fill out the FAFSA. There is no campus-owned housing, but the community of Alexandria is aged to housing college students, and the Housing Office has a comprehensive list of current rentals off-campus. The Employment Office is also available to help you find a job during your time as a student and after.
