Meet Alexandra

Alexandra wanted to prepare for all aspects of work, life, and her career.

 

CVTC was definitely a good choice!

Alexandra started at a four-year college but transferred to CVTC because she knew she wanted to do something in construction. She was hesitant at first and didn’t know if it was the right decision, but the first day of class she knew it was exactly what she wanted to do.

CVTC’s Residential Construction program taught her more than she had ever learned in such a short amount of time. She says you don’t just learn something, you know every aspect of it, you touch it, you feel it, you visualize it, and you get out there and experience it.

She sees the stigma around two-year schools and feels that, based on her experience, CVTC went far beyond her four-year college experience. Her instructor stood out more than anything.
Alexandra feels her CVTC instructors focused not just on the topics but also on developing you as a person beyond school. They learned about life, how to become a good employee, and how to get the most out of your career.

Not being treated differently because she is a woman was important to her, so she went on the roof, did all the things her male classmates did, and formed a bond with the other students in her program.

She is now an Account Coordinator and Drafter at Lyman Lumber, which she loves. She feels her education at CVTC set her up to be successful in her career!
