Background in general Doug is a Tax Consultant and Site Supervisor for a Security company; both full time jobs. He just received the promotion to Site Supervisor; recommended by his predecessor and offered the position by 2 managers as well.
What were you looking for when you came here?
He wanted to start his own business; but the same time he was going to school, the same kind of business has grown. Plus he didn't have the money to start his own business.
How do you find it at Stevens-Henager College?
I called all the local places here in town. University of Phoenix wanted money up front and overall, it just didn't sound right to me. SHC didn't have commercials or a campus when I started. I might have gotten an ad or flyer.

SHC was the 2nd place I called and it sounded like a good deal and they walked me through everything. It was a flawless effort. It was just like "Hey I'm going to school."

The free computer and online was what really attracted me.

I'm not young anymore; the accelerated classes were really good too...
What did Stevens-Henager do for you?
I believe that it was the combination of my background in managing people, banking and my education that helped me get this promotion.
What are you doing professionally now?
Tax Consultant and Security Guard Manager.

Program: Medical Specialties
Year Graduated: 2012
What were you doing before you came to Stevens-Henager College?
When I graduated from high school, I was working two jobs to save money for college expenses. I knew I had always been interested in the medical field and wanted to pursue a career in that area. The goal was to make myself valuable to an employer.
What were you looking for when you came here?
Stevens-Henager College was a great choice for me. Not only did I get the education I needed, but the experience and hands on helped me get ahead. Because I am so young, I have time on my side and moving ahead at such a young age means that I have the advantage to always stay ahead. I am 19 years old with an associate degree and a promising new career.
How do you find it at Stevens-Henager College?
Do not put off your education. There are always a thousand excuses why you "can't" go to school. If you take the time to think of all the excuses, it could very well be years down the road. Just think where you could havd been. There are times when you feel you never have time for yourself, but going to school and getting your education will make it all worthwhile when you are working in that great career. Always remember there is a light at the end of the tunnel and with that light, a better life.
What did Stevens-Henager do for you?
Upon graduation I was asked to take a supervisory position, and I attribute this to the skills and training I received at Shc.
What are you doing professionally now?
I am currently working as a Medical Supervisor for Biomat USA, part of a worldwide team working on cutting edge medical technologies and drugs prociding plasma for testing and the manufacture of therapeutic products.

Name: Dayna Alderman
Program: Graphic Arts
Year Graduated: 2012
What were you doing before you came to Stevens-Henager College?
Dayna was cook at Caddy Shack Bar and Grill. She loved cooking and the design aspects of setting up the aesthetics of how everything is presented on the plate, but it wasn't creative enough of a line of work.
What were you looking for when you came here?
She was looking for something where she could put her creative emotions into your designs and where she could absorb knowledge. She says she could only find that at Stevens-Henager.

I was afraid that I wasn't going to have a legacy to leave behind for my children to look back on. I wanted to be a role model and example to my family.

I have to say that Stevens-Henager was one of the most positive experiences that I have enjoyed in my life.
How do you find it at Stevens-Henager College?
Most of the instructors put their all into what they did for their students. They went above and beyond to help Dayna understand the principles of design. They clearly helped her to understand the answers to her questions. She also researched much of what she didn't understand because her instructor taught her to be more pro-active with her own education.
What did Stevens-Henager do for you?
Stevens-Henager opened up a whole new life for me. It helped me to understand that I was a bigger and better person than I thought. It also helped me to believe in myself as a designer. It helped me to believe in something that I once thought was only a dream and made it a reality.
What are you doing professionally now?
Dayna will be pursuing her master's in fine arts at Full Sail University in media design. She is also working on a pro-bono project for the Fulbright Academy to design the program guide and flyers for the 2013 Global Health Summit that will be held in Montego Bay, Jamaica. She is also tutoring for Stevens-Henager College.
What advice do you have for students?
If you find your passion in something, pursue it. Enrich your education and keep your eye on your goals. When you find obstacles in your way, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep on going. YOU are the only one that is in charge of your destiny.
What advice do you have for potential students?
If you find yourself in doubt, you'll never know unless you take that chance. Taking that chance can open up a whole wide world of opportunities.
