FARMVILLE, Va., April 18, 2011--Internships with area employers are a key component in Bryant & Stratton College’s successful placement of its graduates in jobs – a figure that now stands at approximately 89 percent.
So it’s no surprise that organizations that accept the College’s students as interns are honored periodically. And Prince Edward County is no exception.

“Although we are based in Chesterfield County, we traditionally serve a broad area of Central Virginia,” said Bryant & Stratton College’s Director of Virginia Colleges Beth Murphy. “We’re particularly proud of our students from the Prince Edward County area and the fact that through online classes, highly flexible schedules and traditional classroom instruction, we can provide top-notch career-based education to as wide and diverse an area as possible.”
