QUOTES

Students
"I really like the self-paced, independent, and hands-on learning at CTC."

"I feel like I'm getting training that I can use to help support myself in the future."

"If it wasn't for attending CTC, I probably would have dropped out of high school; now I have a good co-op job that I enjoy and am making good money."

Former Students
"I am very pleased with this program, it helped me immensely with my present job and college studies."

"The building and computer labs are very up-to-date, and I especially liked all the hands-on activities."

"I'd like to thank CTC and the program instructors for helping me get my co-op job, I'm working here full time now."

Parents
"I'm so glad we decided to enroll our son in this program at CTC. He was very bored with school and this program helped renew his interest in school. He really enjoys school again and will graduate in June."

"I like the fact that my daughter has a chance to work at her own pace; this program has high expectations and my daughter has learned a lot towards her career goal...and she hopes to own a business someday."

"The teachers were helpful, informative, patient, and understanding. The education and training my daughter received helped her to decide to continue her education, and she earned her associates degree last June. She now works fulltime at Munson Hospital."

Business Partners
"It is a pleasure working with the students and staff from CTC, the students I've hired come with excellent employable skills and we often end up hiring many for full-time positions."

"Over the years, I have hired many well-qualified students from CTC; I especially appreciate the flexibility, support, and cooperation we get from students and staff."

"The students we hire on co-op come with good skills and it saves us a lot of training time; the transferrable skills are excellent. Congratulations for a job well done."
