Success Stories
In the 17 weeks I was there I learned so much! I had amazing instructors who managed to teach a lot of curriculum in a short period of time. One week before I graduated, I obtained a job as an Administrative Assistant with a property maintenance company. Now I love my job and I have triOS to thank for the skills I learnt that I put to use everyday!
