School History
In the mid 1990's Chris Liponis, founder of a successful career training school in New Hampshire, saw the need for a similar operation in the Southern Maine community where he was born and raised. A family business, Northeast Career Schools in New Hampshire served the needs of over ten thousand students in the fields of professional truck driving, allied health and information technology over 15 years. The short term training filled the needs of underemployed and unemployed adult students looking for skills that would garner job security and a better standard of living.
With his sons in the family business, Chris saw the opportunity to open a smaller version of the same school in South Portland, Maine. His son James relocated to Southern Maine to facilitate the school opening and take control of day to day operations. Northeast Technical Institute was established in the summer of 1995 and began training students at its South Portland campus. The school began with a few short courses in a small space and with a modest array of teaching equipment.
By 2000, NTI had relocated to new facilities in Scarborough, Maine. With more offices, more classrooms and state of the art teaching facilities and equipment, the decision was made to open a small campus in northern Maine and northern Massachusetts. In the following years, the reputation of NTI grew in the Maine community as a small but successful, student friendly school with training for students of all ages and backgrounds.
