History

National Telecommuting Institute, Inc. (NTI) offers high-quality, cost-effective virtual staffing services. Founded in 1995 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, NTI pursues its mission to identify and develop work-at-home jobs for individuals with disabilities and their family caregivers. NTI has two programs: NTI@Home and LandAjob Services.  

NTI can offer recruiting, human resources, payroll, and training services. NTI@Home has provided trained work-at-home employees to some of the largest U.S. government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, and smaller businesses. All of whom wanted to outsource their customer service and technical support operations in order to reduce costs. 

NTI has several partnerships with state and federal agencies such as the Social Security Administration (SSA) and Vocational Rehabilitation. NTI has been an Employment Network in the SSA’s Ticket to Work program since 2004. Several state Vocational Rehabilitation agencies send their clients to NTI@Home for job placement assistance, virtual training, and job coaching services. NTI@Home since its inception has trained and placed over 10,000 Americans with Disabilities in jobs.
