Default Computer Technology Schools

Hello,

Over the past few years, we all have seen technology have a huge impact on our daily lives. From the market recession, to all the layoffs, to many people needing to "re-educate" themselves to people wondering what to do next.

I decided to start a forum to discuss which technology schools and universities are helping people succeed and obtain their goals.

The goal of this discussion is to help answer and talk about these questions and others:

1) What is the best college for technology degrees and why?
2) Is there a real difference in one computer school versus another school?
3) How has your college or university helped you in your career?
4) What can schools do now, that they are not currently doing to help solve problems that "technology" should be able to solve.

I hope this forum can be useful to our members and visitors.
