Benito S. aspired to become an IT professional — and with the help of Boca Helping Hands, he's received the necessary training to do so.
Benito recently completed our Information Technology Job Training Program and earned his CompTIA A+ certification for Information Technology (IT) professionals.
He was first introduced to the profession in high school through preliminary courses and had the opportunity to intern at the School District of Palm Beach County. Since then, he's realized that IT is his calling and passion.
"I love fixing things and helping others by making their lives easier. It is a perfect combination for me," he said.
Since completing his training, Benito has been meeting with a BHH Job Mentor to work on his resume, taken his Network+ Certification exam, and has started working towards his bachelor's in computer engineering. He hopes to land a part-time job to gain experience while in school, working toward his long-term goal of starting his own IT company.
"I believe this program has been the biggest step I've taken toward the direction of my goals. It has been fundamental to becoming everything I aspire to," he said.
