At United Bicycle Institute, we offer the most diverse bike curriculum in the world. Since 1981, we’ve offered bicycle mechanics courses in one and two week sessions. UBI enables graduates to connect with industry leaders and job boards, as well as earn a post-secondary certificate. We’ve hosted students from over 45 countries, and help educate veterans through our VA benefits program.
