Building Professionals

Laying a foundation for the

FUTURE

Heptagon Information Technology, LLC, offers an internship that enables the participant opportunity to gain practical, marketable work experience in a variety of Information Technology disciplines. Our interns have the benefit of working with some of the brightest minds in the IT industry, gaining hands-on, real-world experience while pursuing their educational goals, and earning a paycheck as well. Selected participants gain skills and insight into the fields of Network Engineering, Cyber Security, and Unified Communications. We have witnessed the synergy created through this program and have discovered both partners gain a richer experience and are more motivated and prepared for the workforce upon program completion than if they prepared alone. In partnership with EEEC.
