After dropping out of university during my final semester due to personal reasons. Although my intent was to go back as soon as I was able, but the opportunity wasn't there. Therefore, I was left without options. All the hard work I put into towards my Architecture degree for 4.5 years was without reward other than knowing that if I could have stuck with it, I could have made it through. However, I was in a very precarious situation at that time and it was extremely difficult if not impossible to stay in school. After several jobs here and there. I saw an infomercial on TV one night about CLC. It sounded very compelling with promise. I worked 9 hours a day Monday through Saturday and attended CLC on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Lab on Saturdays. After almost 2 years of this crazy schedule, I finally graduated from CLC in San Jose with a Network Engineering, Management(NEM) degree. I was also fortunate enough to have met some awesome instructors who gave me great advice. One instructor offered me an intern position on the days when I wasn't in school. This opportunity really helped me a lot.Suffice to say, regardless of what other comments or reviews they post online, I'm a firm believer that "you" are in charge of your own destiny, pave your own way. If you can't find the path to travel on, create a path. The information technology profession is a vast industry with opportunities everywhere. Its actually easier to find career opportunities today than it was 20 years ago. I'm not here to endorse CLC or other trade schools, but my only purpose in sharing my testimony is to challenge young people and current professional who are looking to change their careers by sharing my experience with you all, that hard work will pay off no matter what. If the opportunities don't present itself immediately, don't be discouraged, people will take notice and will be willing to give you the very break you need.Good Luck |
