PC ProSchools Gets Accredited Exceeding Standards in Student Placement & Employer Satisfaction

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 03, 2008 – ProSchools is exceeding standards for employer satisfaction, student placement, student record keeping, student enrollment processes, classroom and lab equipment and student satisfaction.  That was the outcome of the final federal accreditation on-site visit last fall and on December 10, 2007, PC ProSchools was granted national accreditation from ACCET accrediting body.  VP of Education Kate Pelchat couldn’t stop smiling; perhaps because weeks of excoriating audits into every detail of PC ProSchools was complete, but more likely because five experts in education, IT and management left feeling that PC ProSchools is an excellent place to learn and prepare students for entry into the IT industry.  “I see the solid results our students achieve day in and day out and it is easy for me to feel proud of what I do” shares Pelchat, “But when experts come in scoring us so highly and can plainly see our success too it really makes our day.”

PC ProSchools, a Microsoft IT Training Academy, offers a quick 6 month alternative to enter the IT industry.  PC ProSchools understands the demands on working adults. “We offer a unique and effective alternative to the traditional 2 or 4 year programs and we have proof it works. Our graduates range from the construction worker whose body is failing him to the stay at home mom who is anxious to re-enter the working world, from the retail worker to the laborer and everything in between. These are individuals that need to change their current situation; whether they need to make more money, they no longer can meet the demands of a physical job or want a career they enjoy rather than a job.

Our students achieve industry recognized Microsoft and HDI certifications and employers rate the hands-on experience that students receive at PC ProSchools as equivalent to working 2-3 years in the IT industry” says CEO Jim Brent. Graduates land high-paying IT jobs such as Help Desk Analysts, Network Administrators and Support Technicians.

Experts aren’t the only ones that rate PC ProSchools high. Students, graduates and employers can’t say enough about PC ProSchools. Student Dave Warner shared “I was tired of working too many hours for too little pay. I haven’t even graduated yet and I’ve got a job with more pay, less hours, and I’m really happy with it. Thanks to PC Pro I feel like I get to live my life how I want to, rather than how I’m forced to.” Graduate Anne Blecke explained “I currently work at a Help Desk and I love my position. I’m challenged at work, enjoy going to work and it’s all directly related to coming to PC ProSchools. I’m making more money and I have so many more options with where I want go. I look forward to advancing my career and PC ProSchools has enabled me to do this.”

Rob Dvorak, President of TechWorks, has hired many graduates of PC ProSchools. “We used a unique interview process suggested by PC ProSchools. We came out and interviewed candidates right in the PC ProSchools’ labs. They made everything so easy and we found all the candidates that we interviewed had a solid foundation. They not only had the technical knowledge but were good communicators as well.”  

At PC ProSchools, the proof is always in the numbers. “The main scores I focus on are those of our student’s certifications,” explains Pelchat, “because it means our educational methods are working and that our students will get great jobs.  So with a 92% MCP and SCA certification for our last graduating track I think we are certainly scoring big!”
