Started in 1971 by Dick and Cherry Brown, SVC was a school taught by those actually in the business. And with each brilliant instructor who’s come through our classrooms over the years, that philosophy has remained the same.

When you come to SVC, you get hands-on experience with someone whose hands are still all the way on. And not just on, but contributing in a major way at top firms for the biggest, most prestigious brands around. This is something you can’t get online or even at many of the bricks-and-mortar schools. Our live classroom environment allows these talented instructors to start and stop, re-explain, and give personal feedback.

It can also help you land a job. If the instructor likes you, of course.

That might sound like an overpromise, but it’s really not. We have been hooked into this community for 45 years, and our instructors have connections to many of the top places around.

We want our classes to be helpful, hugely informative, and where appropriate, a bit unpredictable. You’re coming here to further your career, after all. And the things you learn at SVC might just put you on the path to your dream job.

Want additional help? We offer career counseling and will put together a set of custom course recommendations to get you pointed in the right direction.

Add it all up and there’s a reason 99% of our students say they’d recommend us to their friends and colleagues. Sure, that might be the free candy in the lobby. But, hey, it takes more than a couple of Almond Joys to attract discerning go-getters like yourself. It takes a damn good school. Whose name, again, is SVC.

Not so awkward now that we know each other better, right?
