PC ProSchools - The Click

Over 100 graduates and their guests filed into the Country Inn & Suites in Brookfield, WI on a rainy summer evening last week to celebrate a six month journey to becoming an IT professional.

Last December, students in track 100 began their journey at the Brookfield Campus of PC ProSchools.  The track contained manufacturers, construction workers, secretaries, retail representatives and office workers. All committed to changing their lives and becoming  Help Desk Analysts, Network Administrators or PC Technicians to name just a few.

The Commencement ceremony began with a Welcoming Address from Campus Director Laura Polancich. Polancich, whose primary responsibility at PC Pro Schools is to provide job placement services was proud to congratulate the more than half of the graduating class that had already secured a job in the high paying IT industry and made a commitment to continue assisting those still searching. Next  I presented an Executive Address and Lead Instructor Jim Cranston stood before the class for his final lecture, so to speak. He challenged them to continue learning always and explained how proud he is to now call them colleagues in the IT Industry.

The Keynote Address was delivered by John Danovich, a Tier 2 Help Desk Analyst at Primex Wireless and a former graduate of PC ProSchools from 1 year ago. He chronicled his journey, sharing how different his life is now. He shared how he did exactly what PC ProSchools’ faculty told him to do and offered the same advice to the graduates so they could experience the same success he now has.

The mood was high as the evening concluded with a punch and cake reception where families, graduates and faculty shared memories and hope for promising new futures. Graduate Daniel Kral shared “It is really exciting to know I am going somewhere with my life instead of staying in a dead end job.” Kral is now working as a Network Technician at Aurora.

Another successful track! Life is good!
