Career-training at EVIT Career and College Prep in Mesa, Arizona | #WeAr...

[evitnews]

A senior at Apache Junction High School hopes an East Valley Institute of Technology class he is taking will start him in a career of programming or coding for video games. “I’m really interested in designing video games when I grow up and so I thought this would be an easier thing to learn and progress through. I’m working on HTML right now, which is like a website or animation within that,” Zackary Raymond, 18, said of the information technology and engineering careers class in computer programming, coding and mobile app design. “I kind of like the design of it, like the aspect of making a character move with certain designs or something like that is cool.” He plans to go to Central Arizona College after graduation from AJHS.
