Our Fast Track Programs provide both fast-paced, intensive, job preparation for job seekers looking to obtain employment, as well as shorter courses that focus on specific skills for success on the job. All of our programs are demand driven – when employers say they need employees, that is when we run these programs. Upon completion, you will have achieved a new set of skills and knowledge that makes you job ready, and our job seeker programs provide graduates with the opportunity to interview with local employers to get hired quickly.
