data-driven survey of more than 12,000 VA-approved schools
nationwide. The survey tabulation process, methodology and
weightings that comprise the 2013 list were independently
verified by Ernst and Young LLP. Each year schools taking
the survey are held to a higher standard than the previous year
via improved methodology, criteria and weightings developed
with the assistance of an Academic Advisory Board (AAB)
consisting of educators from schools across the country.

The Hobart Institute, which has accepted students under
the G.I. Bill since 1950, is a nonprofit educational facility
best-known for its hands-on skill training programs and for
offering technical training. From its website, Hobart Institute
offers online courses in Visual Inspection and Welding
Symbols with additional offerings under development. The
Institute also assists companies and individuals with welder
certification and qualification and customized in-plant and
specialized training. Many vocational schools, colleges,
and military training facilities prefer to purchase the Hobart
Institute’s welding training materials including DVDs, student
workbooks, and instructor guides.

To help finance your education, the Institute works with
federal grant and loan programs, educational benefits for
veterans, and funding for dislocated workers. Scholarships
are also available to those who qualify. Watch our website for
announcements of new courses and programs. Mike and Susan —
