BCIT visits Nucleus

Yesterday we had the class from BCIT’s TSP Program visit our office to get a tour of our operations and discuss our services, the clients we support, and the Managed IT Services business model. It was also an opportunity for the students to ask questions about what we do, how we do it, and what we look for in IT professionals joining the Nucleus team.

I’ve been actively involved working with BCIT on many levels; having graduated from the Network Specialist Program back in 2001, being a part of their Technology Programs Advisory Committee, and most recently being a student mentor last semester, I am big on giving back to the school that gave me my start in the IT industry.

Last month we welcomed four new BCIT Co-op students to the Nucleus team, Anthony, Jordan, David, and Gary. We’re happy to have them on board and working on various projects with us until the end of June.

“As a BCIT alumni, I’ve taken the approach of not forgetting where I came from and giving others the opportunity I had. I kicked off my career in the IT industry back in 2001 when I obtained an IT Co-op job as a summer student while attending BCIT’s Network Specialist Program. At the time, a couple people believed in me and gave me the chance with no experience in the industry and it’s been an amazing journey. Meeting and hiring team members from BCIT has been amazing, BCIT students possess the certifications, skills, and attitude we’re looking for.” –Martin, President of Nucleus Networks
