My name is Rodney Reyes. I retired after 23 years from the U. S. Army in October 2005. I am the instructor for COSC/ITSC 1301, Introduction to Computing/Computers at Northwest Vista College. I have taught student developmental courses, introductory computer courses, and introduction to web design at the college and university level since January 2006 (Hybrid, F2F, Remote (Zoom), Fully Online).

I have completed an associate degree from Pikes Peak Community College; a Bachelor of Science degree from Colorado Christian University; a Master of Science degree in Computer Information Systems and a Doctorate degree in Organizational Leadership with a specialization in Information Systems and Technology (Delta Mu Delta) from the University of Phoenix. My research involved The Management Process of Assistive Technology in a Postsecondary Institution which focused on students with disabilities, assistive technology, professional development, and legislative requirements in higher education.

I am the Northwest Vista College Salute Veterans National Honor Society Advisor. I take an active interest in the All-Ranks Club open to all students who are active, veteran, retired, and their dependents. I support student veterans by providing them information or resources that help in their educational success: https://www.alamo.edu/nvc/experience-nvc/campus-life/student-life/support-programs/veteran-support/
