Lois has received the Best of Michigan, Excellence in Technology Award October 2009 for cross boundary IT internship/Apprenticeship and economic growth partnership with the State of Michigan. Lois has been interviewed by the Lansing State Journal and LCC TV “as the link to helping students find employment.” Lois is the liaison for making the connection for a win/win work experience between the student and employer.
