New Professions Technical Institute was founded in 1992 to offer educational opportunities to support the rapidly growing South Florida economy. The city of Miami was chosen as the site for our Campus because of its multicultural setting and its ever-increasing economic base. The South Florida community with its abundant resources of skills and unskilled labor gave way to the creation of a vocational institute whose primary mission is to train for employment in a variety of fields. We started our first class in October 1993, and after a quarter of a century, we continue to promote, “Education is the Key to Success.

New Professions Technical Institute recognizes education as the absolute key to success for an individual’s professional and personal evolution. To reach this goal, we commit to making available educational programs that reflect the current professional trends in different career paths.
