“People in high school in Hawaii are aware of MiraCosta. It has a good reputation,” explains Maile. “When I was 18, I came to California to take a job working in the sales and marketing department of a company in Oceanside. At the time, I wasn’t going to attend college. However, I soon realized I needed more computer experience.” Maile enrolled in Computer Information Science (CIS) 100, a personal computer applications course that is part of MiraCosta’s CIS Flexible Learning Program. In this program, students are given the flexibility to choose from lab or lecture or online instruction at any time throughout the class. “This class really helped a lot. Plus, the program’s flexibility was a blessing,” she says. “After I finished with CIS 100, I decided to enroll in CIS 105, a more advanced computer class. Everything I learned in this class I use everyday at my job.” Click here to read more student success stories. |
