Montreal College has provided me with technical expertise that is critical in the technological industry. I love my progression and am thankful for my achievements due to their program and assistance. Within a year of my Diploma at MCI , I encountered over five offers from high profile companies. Despite a background in Business Management, I was able to adapt, owing to the expertise of the subject matter experts.

J'ai obtenu mon diplôme A.E.C en test de logiciels au CTIM. J'étais eun étudiante internationale qui a beaucoup appris de ce programme et j'ai trouvé un emploi en tant qu'analyste en assurance qualité en automatisation. Je dirais que toutes les compétences techniques que j'ai apprises dans ce cours m'ont beaucoup aidé à atteindre mes objectifs de carrière.

Je suis diplômée en ingénierie du Maroc. J’ai découvert le CTIM pendant ma maîtrise à l’Université de Technologie de Montréal. Étudier au CTIM a considérablement élargi mes perspectives de carrière. N’ayant aucune expérience préalable en TI, je pense que les enseignants m’ont énormément aidé à progresser dans le programme. Leur expérience dans l’industrie nous a permis de mieux comprendre les besoins des entreprises. Au départ, j’étais très incertaine de ma décision, mais avec du recul, je réalise que c’était un choix qui en valait la peine.
