BTI Institute Sponsored
The BTI Institute has postponed conduct of its online courses due to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (USCBP) response to the prolonged, ongoing surge of illegal migrants along the U.S.-Mexico border. We are acutely aware that operational exigencies have made it difficult for our men and women in service to continue their education while working extended hours along the border and away from their homes. Regrettably, this has forced a halt to instruction, as we are unable to consistently attain the minimum number of course attendees needed to conduct courses as structured.
For those interested in participating in future training, you may provide your contact information here. We will contact you when online courses are once again offered.
Education Designed for Your Career
The BTI Institute and the Cullen College of Engineering’s Technology Division at the University of Houston are partnering, under the guidance of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Training and Development, to offer online certification programs. These certificates are designed for Homeland Security Enterprise professionals including current DHS employees or industry professionals engaged in the security and trade facilitation efforts. These courses are fully online and self-paced.
Each course comprises three (3) levels, leading to three (3) certificates of completion with an average completion time of 42 hours, and an equivalent of 4.2 CEUs. Completing all 12 certificates of a program, also awards a program certificate, equivalent to a total of 16.8 CEUs.
Courses include online instruction, including pre-recorded video lectures and writing assignments. The knowledge gained through earning these certificates will enable trainees to better understand the full scope of security or management.
