The Advanced Technology Education (ATE) organization, operating the website ATEOHIO.org, is a Columbus, Ohio-based non-profit dedicated to bridging the digital skills gap by offering accelerated, accessible, and high-quality technical and healthcare training. ATEOHIO specifically focuses on preparing underserved communities (including immigrants and refugees) for immediate entry into the modern workforce through programs like IT Support Specialist, Cybersecurity, and Pharmacy Technician. By aligning its curriculum with current workforce needs and offering flexible, often online, learning options, ATEOHIO functions as a vital workforce development engine that provides a clear pathway for individuals to gain professional certifications and achieve greater financial stability. Our goal is to ensure cost is not a barrier to receiving high-quality training.

We offer low-cost training options, and we have several ways that students can cover the cost of their programs:

Ohio Means Jobs/WIOA Funding: We are an approved Ohio Means Jobs provider and are on the WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) list. This means that eligible students can often receive funding assistance for our training programs through their local OhioMeansJobs center.

Scholarships: Scholarships are available to students who qualify, helping to further reduce the cost of training.

CompTIA Voucher Discounts: Students benefit from significant savings, as we offer discounts on CompTIA vouchers most of the time, often exceeding 15%.
