Southwood Computer Lab

The Center for Professional Development now offers state-of-the-art technical training at our new Southwood Computer Lab. Our programs are suitable for both career-changers as well as established professionals who need to upgrade their skills.

All trainers are dedicated to the success of each individual student. Depending on the program, we may use industry standard courseware (e.g. Microsoft Official Curriculum, Element K), or our curriculum may be designed and developed in-house.
