Anthem Institute also offers programs in computer networking and graphic design. Note: Because schools change the programs offered at their campuses periodically, not every campus of each school will offer all programs, and program names may change slightly from campus to campus. While we try to keep up with the programs each school offers, you should visit the school's website by following the Request Information link to verify the exact programs offered at each campus. |
Anthem Institute
Anthem Institute got its start more than 30 years ago when their former parent company discovered that it couldn't find qualified employees, and decided to start its own training program. Before long, the company's clients were requesting similar training, and the school began offering its educational programs to the general public.
The school's approach to results oriented training includes classes led by highly qualified instructors, and an extensive online library of reference material. The school also offers career development programs and job placement assistance.
