The Resources And Services You Need To Succeed!
Getting
off to a good start on your education is as important to
CIE as it is to you. That's why we've devoted a full-time
support staff to help you with everything from enrollment
and tuition payment information to questions concerning
lesson shipments, academic transcripts, graduation requirements...even
bookstore credits!
CIE
Bookstore:
Hundreds of books covering computers, robotics, satellites,
fiber optics, security systems and other topics related to
electronics are available to you through the CIE Bookstore
catalog. The catalog also includes study aids, test equipment,
tools, clothing and entertainment items. As a CIE student,
you will automatically receive the catalog and may continue
receiving it for as long as you wish after you graduate
Employment Assistance:
As a CIE graduate, we make sure you get a jump-start
on the job market. Need help in preparing your resume? You will
be eligible to receive up to 50 professionally prepared resumes
of your own to present to potential employers. And we will also
provide you with an official letter of recommendation direct from
the President of CIE.
Optional
Laboratory Equipment:
As a student in a CIE lab course, your equipment is already
included in your tuition; however, many students prefer to
purchase professional-quality test equipment to use in commercial
or industrial applications after graduation. To meet this
need, CIE offers optional upgraded test equipment such as
soldering irons, multimeters and oscilloscopes. For those
students or re-enrollees who already own lab equipment, CIE
offers Bookstore credit that can be applied toward any product
offered in the Bookstore catalog.
