ÌÇÐĹÙÍø felt like home, and I mean that in the best way possible. Everyone, from your classmates to the director of your respective program, wants to help and see you succeed. For me, ÌÇÐĹÙÍø stands for community, welcomeness, and caring. ÌÇÐĹÙÍø really feels like everyone is part of the same family and they bring that same attitude to the community as well.<\/p>Felice Masumbuko<\/strong><\/strong> | Surgical Technology<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I have always wanted to work in healthcare since I was a little girl. When starting college, I wanted a fast track to get into the field and start my career. ÌÇÐĹÙÍø was that route for me. I completed my prerequisites prior to applying, and so the 2-year registered nursing program was what was next on my checklist to complete for my career.<\/p>Ashley O\u2019Hanrahan, BSN, RN<\/strong> | AAS Nursing<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The IT Career Jumpstart Program, allowed me the ideal opportunity to attain the skills, confidence and certifications necessary to begin a new career in Information Technology. The resources provided in conjunction with the ÌÇÐĹÙÍø Technology Institute were invaluable in translating my previous experience into the ideal entry point for a new beginning in an essential field.<\/p>Nikolas B.

ÌÇÐĹÙÍø was a perfect fit for me. The teachers understood real life happens and were very accommodating setting office hours and being available for questions. Small class sizes were a plus, and I was not just a number.<\/p>Michele Gawronski<\/strong> | Human Resource Management<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Because ÌÇÐĹÙÍø is a relatively small school, you form a relationship with your instructors. They are able to provide instruction and challenges that are tailored to your needs, wants, and abilities.<\/p>Dan Niles<\/strong><\/strong> | Healthcare Informatics (Certificate)<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
