Testimonials
“This class dramatically increased my confidence in my ability to create. It made me realize that technical fields still require a great deal of creativity, and it's a type of creativity that I never realized I possessed before. I would like to thank everybody involved with this program. It reintroduced me to education in a way that was actually fun and stimulating, and it has inspired me to continue my education either in the form of more certificates or even potentially pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering with a focus on automation and control systems.” Student from Cohort 17
“You guys are super stars. A lot of sacrifice to teach others. I hope TCI can expand to other campuses and become as accessible in future cohorts as it was in this one.” Student from Cohort 17
