Hung Ngo (7/00 grad) enrolled at NEIT after working
in manufacturing at Hasbro. His goal was to earn a degree in a field
in which he could make a contribution; therefore, he chose the Administrative
Medical Assistant Technology program. Hung excelled in the Administrative
Medical Assistant Technology program and was named Tech Scholar and
Best of Tech Award recipient.
Throughout his 18 months of training,
which included training in both the administrative and clinical aspects
of the field, Hung was drawn to the clinical portion. When he began
his job search, he pursued employment that would provide mostly clinical
responsibilities. He accepted a position with Skin Medicine &
Surgery Centers, Inc., which has 16 offices and 70 employees in Rhode
Island, |

Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland and Florida. The centers offer
a wide range of services dealing with acne, skin cancer, and cosmetic
procedures (including hair and tattoo removal), as well as Dermatopatholgy
and MOHS.
Hung is a medical assistant and assists
the doctor with MOHS surgery which entails the removal of basal
cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma skin cancers. Hung obtains
patient information and takes vital signs. He is also involved in
taking pictures of and measuring skin cancer as well as cutting
sutures. He thoroughly enjoys his work and has great respect for
the doctor and medical director, Dr. Nomate Kpea. Hung obtains great
satisfaction from playing a role in helping patients to be skin
cancer free. He looks forward to long employment with Skin Medicine
& Surgery Centers, Inc., and plans to take advantage of the
company's employee training opportunities in order to progress in
his career.
Autodesk Training Center at
NEIT Receives National Awards
New England Institute of Technology's Authorized
Autodesk Premier Training Center (ATC) was awarded three prestigious
performance awards from Autodesk last month. The ATC received awards
for Outstanding Performance, Instructional Quality,
Facilities and Staff. New England
Tech faculty member and CAD coordinator, Steve Lavoie accepted the
awards on behalf of the college's ATC. "I am proud of all of
these awards, but the instructional quality award is the one that
I am most proud of. It represents the best efforts of all of the
ATC faculty and lab assistants at NEIT," stated Lavoie.
The awards were presented at the
Autodesk One Team Training Conference and Autodesk Training Center
Manager meetings held in San Rafael, California. The criteria for
the awards are based upon the evaluations submitted by all ATC training
participants. All ATC's are required by Autodesk to submit evaluations
for every participant and Autodesk determines weighted averages
and subsequently cross- tabulates them to determine the leading
performers in the network of ATC's. There are more than 200 authorized
training centers in the Americas who were eligible for Autodesk
performance awards.
The training center at New England
Tech received the premier designation by providing training in several
Autodesk software vertical market applications. Vertical market
applications are those that use the software in a specific discipline.
An example of this would be the mechanical applications training
offered by the college in Autodesk Mechanical Desktop, Inventor
and Solid Modeling with AutoCAD 2000i. The training center is also
recognized in the architectural applications category by offering
training in Autodesk Architectural Desktop.
The ATC at New England Tech is managed
and operated by the college's Center for Technology and Industry.
