Meet Professor Jamy Klein   

Jamy KleinProfessor Jamy Klein enjoyed earning his master's degree in information assurance so much that he decided he wanted to help other students further their careers as well.

 

Having taught at Capitol for the past three years, Klein knows that there is no better way to learn than by having an industry professional as an instructor.

 


"The one thing that really makes Capitol different is that nearly all of our IA instructors have worked in the IA career field," Klein says. "There is no substitute for experience!"
