What students are saying:

“In short, the New Horizons training track I completed supplemented my other computer experience perfectly. A perfect testament would be the employer I’m with now. My first attempt at delivering my resume, with the New Horizons network security specialist listed, was 100% successful. I am now living in Cary, NC working for Strategic Technologies Inc. as a systems engineer. From my perspective it was not only the certifications, but the hands on training my current employer liked most. For all of you thinking about attending class at New Horizons, don’t pass it up. Yes, you have to put the time into the training but will be very rewarding in the end. Not only will you have on paper what you’ve accomplished, but most importantly the confidence when interviewing.”
