For trade schools

The students are out there. The program is the hard part.

Whether you're starting an online trade school from zero or adding programs to a school you already run, the blockers are the same: curriculum you'd have to build, an LMS you'd have to buy, an instructor you'd have to hire, and a state application you'd have to decode. Titan removes all four.

Start from scratch, or grow what you have.

🚀

Starting an online trade school from scratch

You don't need a building, a curriculum team, or years of runway — you need an entity, a state approval, and a program worth approving. Titan supplies the program, the application package, the LMS, and the instructor of record. Many of our partner schools launched with Titan as their very first program — some enrolled their first students within two months of deciding to start.

You focus on: your brand, your state filing, and finding students. We handle: everything a program is made of.

📈

Adding programs to an existing school

Your students already trust you — every program you don't offer is revenue walking to another school. Adding HVAC, electrical, or plumbing through Titan is a configuration task, not a construction project: pick the program, we set up your class, you file the addition with your state using our package.

Worth knowing: our strongest partner schools average more than 1.5 programs per student — the second program is where the economics get fun.

Enroll, one seat at a time

Start with five seats, add one the day a student signs up. Training staff or an employer cohort? That can start in days.

Already using a course library?

Bring us your module list. We'll map the switch.

If you're paying for content but still doing the program work yourself — the LMS, the paperwork, the instructor — you're solving the wrong half of the problem. We'll map your current content to a complete Titan program, prepare your state paperwork, and time the launch to your renewal date. See the honest comparison →

Fair questions

What school owners ask us.

Is it really our program?
Your program's name is on the course, your students are in your own class with your own roster and gradebook, and your state application is filed under your school. The lessons themselves are Titan-built — and we don't hide that. The same proven engine runs behind partner schools in sixteen states, which is exactly why your launch takes weeks instead of years.
We're starting from absolute zero. Where do we begin?
Book a walkthrough and tell us your state. We'll walk you through the real order of operations — entity, state application, program selection, first enrollment — and hand you the program piece complete. You bring the ambition; the program is the one part that's already done.
What does the state see when we apply?
A complete application: course descriptions, module-by-module hour breakdowns, learning outcomes, assessment methods, completion requirements, and instructor-of-record resumes — the same package that's been through sixteen states' review processes.
Do we need our own LMS?
No — that's the point. Titan programs run on a true learning management system: enrollment, gated module progression, quizzes, gradebook, certificates. There is nothing else to buy or integrate.
What if we only have three students to start?
You start with five seats (about $4,995) and they don't expire on a contract clock — each seat's one-year term starts when a student starts. After the first five, you add seats one at a time, the day you need them.
Will you ever recruit our students?
Never. Titan has no consumer storefront and no enroll button. Partners are our only channel — if a student wants a Titan-built program, the only door is your door.
