Miller-Motte College Introduces Innovative Online IT Program
Miller-Motte College (MMC) is excited to announce the launch of its new PC & Network Support Technician diploma program. This program is part of the college's online offerings designed to equip students with valuable IT skills. The program will commence soon, providing a comprehensive curriculum that can be accessed 24/7.
Program Details and Accessibility
This 50-week program is tailored for individuals who may have never considered post-secondary education. The online format makes it accessible to anyone looking to gain credentials in the dynamic IT field. The college aims to inspire a diverse range of students to engage in educational pathways that enhance their career prospects in technology.
Curriculum Overview
Joe Mowery, Vice President of Online Operations for Ancora, emphasizes that the PC & Network Support Technician program is designed to prepare students as entry-level members of IT support teams. Graduates can expect to pursue roles as information technology specialists, computer technicians, help desk analysts, or network technicians.
The curriculum includes essentials such as maintaining and supporting computer systems, developing communication skills, record-keeping for help desk tasks, and creating training materials for hardware and software usage. Hands-on experience is a key component, as students will learn about the installation and troubleshooting of hardware and software issues.
Stackable Credentials and Career Advancement

They have the opportunity to return later to enhance their qualifications by completing higher-level degrees at a discounted rate.
