The Professional Training
Certificates in Nanotechnology is
funded by the following:
1. a grant awarded under the President’s
High-Growth Job Training Initiative, as
implemented by the U.S. Department of
Labor’s Employment & Training
Administration.
2.
In partnership with the San Bernardino
Community College District, the California
Institute of Nanotechnology has recently
received a grant under the Responsive
Training Fund for Incumbent Workers by the
Chancellor's Office of the California
Community Colleges.

Nanotechnology
The California
Institute of Nanotechnology’s mission is to conduct
research and development and provide professional
education and training in the frontier of nanotechnology
to meet the needs of the emerging industry for the
benefit of the society.
The California
Institute of Nanotechnology conducts advanced & applied
research in nanotechnology to help solve major problems
facing mankind such as diseases, shortage of energy and
global environmental issues.
With our expertise and a large
network of world class collaborators focusing a broad
spectrum of nanosciences and nanotechnology, we provide
business and advanced technical
consulting services to
a number large multinational corporations around
the world.
California
Institute of Nanotechnology serves as the central hub to
