"I hadn’t been happy in my banking and mortgage career for quite some time. It became clear that my opportunities for development and growth were limited. I knew I had to take action and seek a new career path. While attending a job fair, I came across New Horizons Computer Learning Centers. I always had a passion and interest in computers and thought that this could be the perfect fit to learn new skills, change my path and prepare me for a career in IT. Instead of feeling stressed about leaving my job, I was inspired by the stories shared by other students and peers at the orientation. After graduating from the program in August 2017, I got career coaching and job placement assistance through New Horizons Career Services. They helped me get placed as an IT Help Desk Technician at Apex Systems, a division of ASGN Incorporated which is the 2nd largest IT and 3rd largest Clinical and Scientific staffing firm in the U.S. Thanks to them I was able to start my career in IT."

“I was looking for a better job opportunity in IT. New Horizons told me about the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act program (WIOA) that covers tuition for those who qualify. I didn’t know such a program existed. It was exciting to know that getting my certifications would lead me to my dream job. I started the program in January 2019 and graduated in May 2019 with my CompTIA A+ and Network + certifications. My favorite thing about New Horizons is the focus on training and ensuring you understand the program. They provide you with hands-on training which is beneficial in learning. They treat you like family, and I'm very pleased with the school. The teachers are supportive and work with you until you understand everything you need to know. In the IT field, there are more job opportunities with your certifications and most companies are looking for certified technicians, and this is the way to do it. I am currently working at Nu Tech as a Help Desk Technician since June 2019."
