MicroTrain Renovates Classrooms as Part of Overall Facility Improvements

by on February 2nd, 2010

As part of the ongoing effort to maintain the highest quality training environment, MicroTrain Technologies recently upgraded each of its three area facilities to enhance the equipment and make the classrooms more comfortable.  The classroom remodeling effort, which is part of MicroTrain's larger infrastructure upgrade and improvement, was completed the week of January 29, 2010.

As part of the upgrade, MicroTrain replaced the computers at the student workstations in the classrooms to new, faster and more capable models that will provide students with more convenience and enhanced training options.  This upgrade included new CPUs, monitors, keyboards, and mice.  In addition, MicroTrain also installed new training tables that offer students better ergonomics and more comfort, enhancing the learning experience.

"At MicroTrain we are always looking for ways to improve our students' experience," said Stan Van Nice, CEO and co-founder of MicroTrain.  "These recent upgrades ensure that our facilities remain state of the art and offer the most effective and convent training experience.  The classroom upgrades we made over the first month of 2010 are just part of the larger, and ongoing effort to improve our facilities and ensure that we remain a training leader in Chicago."

A Cisco Success Story

I attended a resume writing seminar & conducted mock phone interviews with a Microtrain career counselor. These two activities gave me a leg up on distinguishing myself from all the other people looking for work. Since the career counselor's at Microtrain had a track record of getting people hired, their insight and positive past experiences helped me tremendously in getting hired with a Cisco Voice Systems Integrator in the Chicago area. I was hired as a Cisco Voice Tech Engineer with a starting salary of $65,000 / year with a Cisco voice systems reseller located in the Chicagoland area. Microtrain was very instramental in making this a reality. From expediting my WIA grant, to providing excellent hands-on training from knowledgable instructors I was able to achieve becoming certified with my CCNP. Microtrain's career services was the final catalyst in connecting me with this company by communicating with them on my behalf and with me in setting up the interview. One week later and I was hired. No joke. Thanks Microtrain!

Employer Partner Feedback

Dawn has been a pleasure to work with. She is diligent in her efforts to give MicroTrain’s students the best opportunities to connect and network with various companies and players in the job market. The curriculums and certification programs are in line with today’s current IT needs. It’s good to see that they evolve with what employers are most seeking out there. I would recommend to any employer that hires skilled IT workers that they look into MicroTrain’s career services department as a potential source of candidates. The business of hiring can be quite costly, and Dawn and her staff provide a free service to outside companies. This value-add for MicroTrain’s students aligns with their mission in both training and job assistance to set up a win/win scenario for all involved.

Great class, loved the interaction and team-building exercises. Plenty of materials and learning tools supplied. Although it was a full week's class, never boring. Donna [Russell] was awesome and gave many supporting examples for better understanding.

Microtrain presents the course material in an interesting and concise manner. Microtrain gives the student all the resources necessary to pass the certification exams. Both the Chicago and Lombard facilities were excellent, and the staff goes to any length to accommodate any student changes.
