WHAT WE DO
We do two things exceptionally well:
ONE, we source world thought-leaders, keynote speakers in Software Test, Agile, and Quality Engineering to provide experiential, current and relevant TRAINING to a market that is undergoing rapid changes in how I.T. delivers software to a fast-paced market.
TWO, our profits fund our accelerated Software test, Coding and Enterprise Skills training program. We extract young IT loving geeks from the pool of Australia's 25% of unemployed youth, train and place them into work. For us, graduation is a job - not a piece of paper.
WHAT WE OFFER
We offer IT Professionals world-class TRAINING of exceptional quality.
We offer Employers quality Test & Software candidates for hire.
We invite you, the Employer to also partner with us to have your entry-level jobs filled with young Australians trained to your specific requirements.
We will work with you to provide a pool of job-ready IT staff in Test, Front-End development, and technical support to select from.
WHY WE DO IT
• We believe in a debt-free education for youth.
• We believe 'Limitation' is not an impediment to placing youth into IT jobs historically belonging to degree-qualified only. We, therefore, train the ‘least’ in a community; those impacted by poverty, abuse or attitudes of prejudice.
• We accelerate students into the IT job market as by active engagement in the start-up IT community.
• We've seen youth benefit from adding value to the IT Start-Up community, by creating personal connections, first-hand experience, and understanding how businesses work
• We've seen many real-world insights and varied experiences are required for youth to find the career that best fits their talents, passion, and nature.
• We've seen that frequent opportunities to practice soft skills need to be integral in youth education in order to meet the challenges of the future economy.
Youth
Test-Ed's training is freely available to unemployed 18-22-year-olds with a passion for IT.
Training Location: Level 2, 11 York Street, Sydney. Hours 9.30 am to 4.30 pm.
