- Have employers informed you that you have no work experience?
- Would you like a real solution to this problem that will not take a lot of time?
- Would you want that solution to have career advancement, provide future opportunities for education and give you excellent raises?
An outstanding solution to your problem is to enroll in a vocational school that teaches information technology skills.
Train for a Information Technology Career
Information technology is leading the job hiring fields today, because the education is performance based, and that is what employers are looking for in all new hires. Information technology training is based upon training, performance and certification. Employers are looking for employees they do not have to train, who can perform the job on the first day of employment. Would you like to be that special candidate?
This vocational training does not require a college degree, but it can put you on the road to getting one. Many students who get a job in this field wind up working for a company that will pay all or part of their college tuition after being an employee for more than one year. Countless new workers are taking advantage of this great opportunity. If you have heard that going to a vocational school will stop you from ever attending college, this is truly a myth. In fact, many students use vocational training to finance future debt-free college degrees. Many employers, especially colleges and universities, offer tuition-free classes to all university employees. This is one way to graduate from college owing no money. A great example of one university offering free tuition to college employees is Loyola Marymount University, which is about one mile from our ABCO Technology campus.
What certifications will get that great job?
If you are a person who enjoys repairing and solving problems with a computer, the CompTIA A+ certification is just for you. You can complete the A+ in six weeks, and after completing this training you can look for that better paying job as a computer repair specialist or in desktop support.
After repairing computers, you can advance to higher paying fields of networking, which include the MCSE or Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert and the Cisco Certified Network Associate. With a little experience and a few certifications your job title will be network administrator.
High school graduates can also train and certify in other fields of information technology, including:
Students certifying in web development build websites, which all businesses need to advertise their services. The database field has the job title of database administrator, which involves handling large amounts of information. In fact there is an explosion of new jobs in the database field because of recent changes in health care. Computer programmers write games, design smart phone applications and write programs for Windows and other operating systems. New jobs for computer programmers are now available in the U.S., especially since programming for smart phone applications requires an in-depth knowledge of local culture.
Some of the certifications listed in this article will take six months to complete.
Real Careers Out Of High School Are Out There!
Vocational training is popular because it is hands-on education. This means when you graduate, you can do the job a future employer wants. Employers substitute your performance for countless years of experience when you fill out that important job application listing your newly acquired job skills.
ABCO Technology is an ACCSC accredited institution. That accreditation means that students may apply for financial aid and receive help with their education if they qualify.
Students enrolling at ABCO Technology receive a diploma instead of a certificate. The diploma is highly valued when placed next to that important certification.
