Intern Testimonials
Jennifer Craft
I graduated from the Victoria School of Business and Technology in December 2005, since then I have been an intern here at northStudio.com. The Web Design Certification program taught me everything I needed to know about how to build and design a web site, However, The internship gave me the opportunity to apply the skills I gained through the WDC program and advanced them beyond, even my own expectations.
I’d like to thank all the staff for helping me with my everyday and continuous questions, (as well as putting up with my inevitable baseball injuries) I could not have accomplished so much without you.

I began the Victoria School of Business and Technology Web Designer Certificate Program and 6 month Web Designer Internship in the spring of 2002. I started with absolutely no web design skills and medium computer skills.
After my courses I had developed web design knowledge and graphic design skills but it was the Internship that really made the difference. Working right in the office along side people who have been in the business for years was where I gained the most valuable training. The answers to all of my problems and obstacles took one question to a guy beside or behind me.
After completing my 6 month Web Design Internship I had the knowledge and skill to either get a job in the field or start my own business but I decided to take my training to the next level and enrolled in the Web Application Programming Certificate Program and 6 month Programming Internship. After 3 months of courses I began my Programming Internship, working under the instruction of a programmer with 20 years of experience in the industry. Once again anything I needed to know was one question away. By the end of Internship I had learned enough through the training and my own hard work to be offered a job as a web application programmer and Designer with northStudio.com Inc. I still work here now.

This summer I have had the privilege of participating in the Victoira School of Business and Technology's Web Design Internship program. I found the northStudio team to be extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and eager to help me succeed. During the three-month program I participated in ongoing client projects, designed several sites independently and gained valuable software instruction from skilled professionals.
I highly recommend the internship program - northStudio.com's unique combination of classroom instruction plus practical work experience proved to be a rewarding opportunity and provided a beneficial complement to my collegiate studies.
