Amy Henderson- The Communications Center, Inc.

A friend of mine convinced me to enroll with her in the beginning belly dancing class. It was a lot of fun and a great way to spend time with girlfriends. There were fabulous accessories too (scarves, finger cymbals, swords)!

 

Ann Warren - Commerce Bank
An associate and I took the Access 2003 class. The instructor was wonderful and very patient with all of our questions. He would take the time to work with our specific needs and not just give us textbook answers. That one on one time he gave us in class made the entire course worthwhile! I highly recommend taking classes at the Career Center!
