"St. Ambrose University, in partnership with Modern Woodmen of America, is developing a learning experience for technical skill development and hands-on-training in the area of IT.  It is called the IT Bootcamp Summer Class.   Graduating high school seniors interested in gaining more skills and experience in IT are encouraged to participate.  Participants receive college credit, an IT Skills Certificate, and may be offered employment with Modern Woodmen of America.  This is an amazing opportunity for any high school seniors graduating this spring and looking to start a career in IT but may not have the time, money, or resources, to obtain a degree to work in an IT profession. Classes start June 11 on the St. Ambrose University campus.  Seniors, if you want more information, please see Mr. James Davis, the UT College & Career Advisor."
