IT, or Information Technology, is one of the fastest growing industries in the United States. Many of the careers are in high-demand, making many salaries higher than the national average, even some specialized entry-level positions, higher than the national average. Plus, it’s one of the industries in which skills and knowledge mean more than a traditional four-year degree. We help obtain the professional certifications that prove to employers that have the skills need the they’re looking to fill.

We offer career training programs for up to 14 in-demand certifications across five of the leading brands in IT, including Microsoft, Linux, Cisco, CompTIA, and even the Certified Ethical Hacker certification from EC-Council. This provides you hands-on training and knowledge for a career in computer hardware, software, networking and/or cyber security. These are among the most marketable fields in IT. No programming knowledge is required to start your career!

  • Information Technology Security & Administration (ITSA – No prerequisites)
  • Cyber Security Specialist (CSS – Prerequisites)

Your resume must clearly and effectively show skills in such a way that hiring managers won’t have to second guess your qualifications. Our programs are designed with this in-mind. It’s important you satisfactorily complete a program in its entirety to build a solid foundation for your future career. Exceptions may be made for a student who has one or more current certifications. Please review our transfer credit policies in consultation with your Admissions Advisor.
