We are again inviting Washington State community or technical college students who are studying information technology or computer science to enter 2013 The Life of an IT Professional: A Five Minute Story competition.

The Center now has a library featuring the video profiles of 11 IT professionals (IP support specialist, development/platform evangelist, systems administrator, senior test engineer, applications developer, lead developer, web designer, web developer, quality assurance engineer, software engineer, business intelligence and data analyst manager).  These IT professionals discusses educational background, what they do in their job on a daily basis, the key skills needed to work as an IT professional, and what makes their jobs exciting and challenging.

Students are invited to submit their videos to the Center of Excellence.
