Library and Information Technician Diploma

“I would literally not be in my present employment position if I did not partake in this program. I got my job because it showed my employers that I was dedicated to learning and enhancement and this program helped me achieve this, and demonstrated that I would be a valuable asset. The online experience was critical in learning about technology and how to best use it to help yourself and those you will be helping once you complete your education.”

- Renata Miklavcic
