Southwest Wisconsin Technical College
IT - Network Specialist
I chose Southwest Wisconsin Technical College as I was a previous student over the past decade. I had taken the EMT-B and firefighting courses and enjoyed my time on campus. After being a correctional officer for many years, I decided to change my career path and began exploring my options. I had always been fond of technology and wanted to explore what Southwest Tech offered in that category. I contacted a current employee who is a friend of mine from high school, Brianna Fortney. She pointed me in the right direction to explore my options.
After a tour of the IT program area and a discussion with the program instructor, Aaron Halverson, I knew this was the direction I wanted to go. Every semester after solidified that choice. I finally feel like I am doing the right thing and developing a knowledge base that makes me successful.
