College spends a lot of time teaching theory while Server Academy focuses on the skills that are not taught in college (building and administering a Windows Network).

Now, yes there's more to landing your IT dream job than just showing that you can set up a new server and clone a few virtual machines. You need to have a strong network. You need to be in conversations with recruiters at companies you admire. And you need to be comfortable and confident enough to speak with hiring managers for positions that might seem slightly out of your comfort zone.
