Endorsements
Corey Smith, President, Data Resource Management Association (DRMA) of Seattle:
"I believe our membership is going to find this program an excellent educational opportunity. As a further indication of the interest level, six DRMA members sit on the advisory board for this program (including five current or former DRMA board members)."
Thom Harrington, VP Financial Services, DAMA International:
"My position on the Executive Board of DAMA International provides a unique view of industry prospective. This degree offers students exposure to a number of skills highly sought after by employers. Course offerings in analysis, design, architecture, and comparative modeling will provide students a base skill set not easily found in the market place."
Kim Morales, Oracle Corporation Higher Education Account Manager:
"Oracle and our customers are always on the lookout for potential employees with advanced database skills. Most students graduating with two-year degrees in information technology have only one or two courses in database. This new Database Technologies degree will allow students with prior experience in information technology to begin taking courses at the 200 level and then in their second year to take a series of advanced level database courses."
Janet A. Voorhies, Sr. Manager, Application Support & Program Management, Snohomish County PUD:
"This (Database Information Technologies degree) will enable student to see a quicker turnaround on their skills development and provide a more immediate opportunity to use these skills in their jobs."
