Testimonials
“Through a job fair at Trevecca, I was offered a business analyst opportunity with a software company in Nashville. We build workforce management software and I serve as the administrator for global support live systems. I administer the servers to more than 1,800 people around the world who daily rely on our expertise to help keep things running.
I use my project management skills from Trevecca in my day-to-day responsibilities. I remember my professors telling me, ‘You can have all the certifications in the world, but if you don’t have the communication and problem-solving skills, you won’t go too far in the industry.’
I remain grateful for the well-rounded education I received.”
