Erskine Green Training Institute (EGTI) Indiana
- Erskine Green Training Institute (EGTI), founded by The Arc of Indiana Foundation, is the first of its kind postsecondary vocational training program in the country. Opened in 2016, EGTI provides training in hospitality, food service, healthcare, and inventory distribution.
- Housed within theCourtyard by Marriott in Muncie, Indiana, the program provides a uniquely personalized training experience for each student. During the 10 – 13 week training sessions, students attend class, master key job skills, and gain valuable work experience through an internship.
- EGTI students can choose to commute from home (if within a 60-mile radius) or live at the Courtyard Muncie at Horizon Convention Center hotel just as one would a college dorm. Students may opt to have a single room or to be matched with a roommate.
- Upon completion of the program, students leave with a certificate, resume, practiced interview skills and a list of open positions in the community they are returning to after graduation. More importantly, they leave connected to the EGTI team and other resources, including an alumni group, for ongoing support and information.
