WHY CHOOSE INSTITUTE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY?
Students
Institute of Information Technology (IofIT) is based in Calgary, Alberta and provides industry-recognized fast-track certifications in IT –
- Quality Assurance,
- Test Automation,
- Software Development,
- Project Management, and
- Business Analysis.
Over the past 4 years, Institute of Information Technology (IofIT) has trained and supported over 150 professionals who have found work across Canada. We are well known as the only college where a client can learn IT skills and start employment within months in North America.
Our students succeed because we offer :
- Flexible classroom and online training options, connecting students LIVE face-to-face for every session using the latest web presentation technologies,
- Canadian IT projects training.
- Canadian workplace culture training.
The goal of Institute of Information Technology (IofIT) is to prepare our students for IT roles in the Canadian market. Often, skilled workers are challenged to secure gainful employment because their resumes are screened out or they are not successful in interviews. These are some common reasons for this:
- Resumes do not contain the key words and technical skills the employer is looking for,
- education is lacking project-based learning exposure,
- interview skills need development; understanding of behavioral and technical interview styles,
- Canadian employers prefer to hire workers with Canadian experience,
- employers want workers who are independent, can work collaboratively with project stakeholders, are strong communicators, and can add value to their business unit.
We are genuinely invested in seeing our students succeed and believe that our students need both:
- in-demand, practical technical training, and
- training in other common employment readiness skills.
With this dual focus, Institute of Information Technology (IofIT) trains students through:
- real-time projects,
- providing hands-on experience on web/window projects,
- training in processes and standards to follow,
- resume writing training,
- technical and soft skills interview preparation and job placement support.
