INDIVIDUAL CAREER COUNSELING
Our Career Counselors work with HiTech Institute graduates. We look
at your existing job skills and previous education in addition to the new
skills that you acquired at our institute. Each student who attends HiTech
Institute has a unique work and educational background. This means that
each person requires individual counseling to best suit his or her
personal goals when approaching employment in the computer industry. This
support is provided upon successful completion of each program. This
counseling is available for twelve months after the end of a course.

GUEST LECTURES
It is very important for students of IT to keep up with the latest
technology and the school regularly organizes free lectures on the latest
developments in the information technology field. Experts in different
areas of IT deliver these lectures and they provide valuable information
for the small investment of time. These experts often create interest in
their specific field, leading students to new career choices and fields of
study. Our aim is to help keep our students as up to date as possible with
the developments occurring in the IT field during the taking of their
course. We want our students to leave with the most recent knowledge
available and to consider HiTech Institute an important resource for life
long learning.

CLASS SIZE & TIMETABLE
OPTIONS
Our students are generally working adults seeking upgrading or a
change in careers. To maximize learning and minimize classroom time our
class size is limited to a maximum of 6 to 8 students.
We understand that most of our students have other commitments
outside of their education, so we attempt to be flexible. Should a student
be enrolled in day courses, but need to take a module or two in the
evening timeslot, this arrangement may be made on two conditions: there
must be room in the other class, and the student must complete the module
within the same timeframe and in the same order as the group they began.

COURSE MATERIALS AND BOOKS
At the beginning of each course, students will receive a course
outline, a list of on-line resources, and a list of the software used in
the course. For each class, students will receive a complete set of class
notes and their assignments on diskette.
Any books, if required, may be purchased from any applicable retail
vendor or at a discounted price from HiTech Institute.
Textbooks and reference books are also available in the school for
reading within the institute. The school also subscribes to various
technical magazines and periodicals. Students will be permitted to take
these magazines home for study and return them after a stipulated time.

LIBRARY AND PRACTICE LABS
HiTech Institute has a complete library of hardware and software
manuals for the products we use, along with copies of required and
recommended training manuals. The school also subscribes to various
technical magazines and periodicals to help students stay abreast of new
technologies. These are available for student use in-house at any time
during our office hours.
