"Now I'm Assistant Director of IT"
Gibbs' hands-on training and experienced instructors really made a difference. Before attending Gibbs, I worked in repair at a furniture store. Now I'm Assistant Director of Information Technology, with plenty of opportunities to move into management as I gain experience.

"Training is the Key to Success"
After working in an entry-level office job for two years, I realized I needed to learn more computer applications and better business skills in order to advance in the job market. In addition to computer software, Gibbs trained me in professionalism, prioritizing and meeting deadlines.

I now work as an office manager, where I oversee a department of twelve employees and provide support to upper management staff. I've also just enrolled in Gibbs' Visual Communications program to increase my design and marketing skills so I can move up the corporate ladder. If I can juggle a full-time job and classes, anyone can! You can make it happen.

"Enhance Your Career or Attain a New One"
I was a self-employed child-care provider for 20 years before attending Gibbs. I've gained a tremendous amount of self-esteem from being back in a classroom and doing so well in my studies after so many years! Gibbs placed me in a workstudy position as an administrative assistant in their Education Department, and hired me full-time after graduation. I fully intend to keep going with my education, study management, and move my career in that direction. Gibbs' instructors are dedicated to using industry-current technology to teach you all the skills you'll need to enhance your current career or attain a new one. Going back to school isn't always easy, but it's worth doing.

"Flexible Schedule and Small Classes"
Gibbs' flexible schedule and small classes were a big plus for me. I had one-on-one time with my instructors, and I got hands-on experience with software and hardware that I now use daily in my current position as assistant director of IT for Gibbs' Visual Communications program.

"The Best Decision I've Made"
Going to Gibbs was the best decision I've made as an adult! I've formed incredible relationships and been presented with unlimited opportunities, including a Study Abroad trip to London. With my Business Administration Management degree, I have the opportunity to excel in a variety of industries. I have just started a talent agency and plan to really network and bring it to the forefront. Set up an interview and check out Gibbs for yourself!

"I Love My Career!"
I am from Venezuela, so when I came to Gibbs to increase my graphic design skills, I had to learn in my second language. The teachers are very helpful and have a lot of experience. Thanks to them and my own effort, I succeeded. I'm now teaching visual communications. I have many opportunities because graphic designers are really in demand. I love my career!

"Gibbs Helps You Find a Job"
Gibbs helps you find a job, through both hands-on training and lifetime job placement assistance. I'm now working as an administrative assistant. But I also enjoyed the experience of learning new things and meeting new people.
