  • Education divisions of large corporations (ex. IBM)
  • Government agencies and programs:
    • US Office of Education
    • Bureau of Prisons

    • Peace Corps
  • Community Organizations:
    • Boy and Girl Scouts

Our department of education will assist you with career goals as well as articulation to your chosen four year institution.
