Hello World!
I am attending Milwaukee Area Technical College this semester. There are a few reasons for this. One, because I wanted to be in the IT Network Specialist program. Two, the degree I am pursuing at MATC will help me in the job market. Three, MATC is within close proximity of my house.
The first reason is that MATC has the program I want. Looking at the course catalog, I found this school has the IT Network Specialist program. I mostly chose this program because I've been working with computers since sixth grade and I've wanted to learn more and more. Since I learned about basic networking in high school, I thought this would be a perfect fit for me. So far, I've liked my classes, even though it's only my first semester.
The second reason is that the degree I am pursuing at MATC will help me in the job market. Past job searches, especially some for another class, have shown me that there is a high demand for network specialists as well as network managers, and many other jobs that relate to this field. Knowing that there is a high demand makes me want to go to MATC and get my degree even more.
The last reason is that MATC is close to my home. I live less than five miles away from MATC. This makes it a very quick drive for me to get there. This saves me both time and money, which is critical in this day and age.
