School is one night a week for four hours with additional lab classes scheduled on alternate nights, September through June. Students are responsible for tuition and books. All classes are held at the NWIET/JATC Training Center in Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington. Classes are progressive. You must start at the beginning of the school year.
