Our commitment however does <\/span>not end there. The first two phases in our campus development will represent a $250 million <\/span>dollar investment in Rhode Island and our host community, East Greenwich. For 75 years we <\/span>have been on the cutting edge of hands-on career training and thousands of our graduates <\/span>are employed in high level careers. This economic development investment will not only <\/span>continue that tradition, but will now place our college at the most advanced levels of workforce <\/span>training for 21st century employment. We recognize that these are turbulent times and that is <\/span>why we have instituted progressive measures such as a tuition freeze program and increased <\/span>financial aid to make our college more affordable. New England Tech, along with the region\u2019s <\/span>other not-for-profit institutions, understands the key role we play in expanding the local <\/span>economy. This expansion furthers our on-going commitment to the State of Rhode Island.\u201d <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Under the leadership of President Richard I. Gouse, New England Institute of Technology is <\/span>a private, non-profit technical college with an enrollment of more than 3,000 students and is <\/span>accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Inc. Founded in 1940, <\/span>today the college offers associate, bachelor\u2019s, master\u2019s, and on-line degrees in more than <\/span>40 technical and business programs. Each of our degree programs is taught with a proven <\/span>combination of technical expertise coupled with hands-on learning.
