Student Services
Our students’ success is the measure of our success, and at Pioneer Technology Center, we want you to be successful! Enrolling in courses which are appropriate to your interest and aptitudes is a very important step on the road to your success.
Assessment
Purpose: The purpose of the PTC Assessment Center is to provide testing services to potential students, school enrollment personnel, human service organizations, and employers to assist them in making informed decisions related to program enrollment. Assessment results are criteria used in the enrollment process.
Testing Instruments Used:
The PTC Assessment Center uses a variety of tools to evaluate an individual's current level of functioning. These tools include: Compass, WorkKeys, and the Oklahoma Career Information System (OKCIS). PTC also accepts ACT scores if taken within the last three years. Please let Student Services know if you have assessment from another educational institution that may be used. A complete assessment will take approximately 2-3 hours. Please allow yourself ample time to complete your assessment.
Flexible Scheduling

This type of scheduling also allows you to control your own pace through the program. Providing you meet all program requirements, you can complete your program early. Ask a counselor which programs provide this type of scheduling.
