Information Technology Program

Why EvCC IT?

Train with some of the latest technology in cybersecurity.

Everett Community College is the first community college in the nation to provide training for students who are learning how to protect physical infrastructure from cyber attacks using real industrial components and networks. 

Compete in a cyber challenge.

EvCC is planning two cybersecurity competitions for college students and high school students. Ten five-person teams will compete at each level in capture-the-flag competitions. Spoiler alert: Here’s a sneak peak at the competition themes.

Earn up to two degrees and four certificates.

Preparing students for in-demand jobs, EvCC’s Information Technology program offers degrees and certificates in computer support, systems and network administration, cyber security, and cloud-based software and services. 

Learn from experts.

In the information technology program, you'll learn from knowledgeable instructors with years of industry experience, like Ryan Masinelli, who was once a student in the program and has a background in systems administration, and Dennis Skarr, who performed cyber security missions and training for the National Guard for 10 years.

Most of our courses are aligned with an industry certification. 

These are included within the course and include:

Students also have access to free tutoring and free education copies of Microsoft software and VMware products.

Our program includes a required internship.

We have partnerships with local business and government IT departments to offer competitive internship opportunities to our students. These placements can lead to full-time employment or provide needed experience for job placement after graduation.

Move ahead faster based on what you already know.

Knowledge that you've gained through prior learning, job experiences or time in the military may move you ahead to higher level IT coursework and accelerate your entrance into the job market. If you have experience working in IT, email IT_Academic@everettcc.edu. 

This program was formerly called Computer Information Systems.
