Harbourside IT featured in the NS News

Harbourside Institute of Technology has been featured in the North Vancouver's North Shore News. You can read the article here.

From the article; In the past three years, the audio school has worked to distinguish itself from the competition, keeping class sizes down, making pricey investments in equipment, and arranging for the school to become the first Pro Tools certified institute in Vancouver, Canada.

Of particular pride to the school's administrators are the teachers they've been able to attract. All work in the industry, and guest instructors are also brought in to share knowledge about particular areas.

"People aren't stuck in a class of 60 people, listening to a teacher that's actually never made a record before," says Chris DeMarcus, the school's Program Director, who has worked on more than 60 albums.
