Ohio IMAP | Free IT Training for Ohioans

"After I found myself unemployed in the aftermath of the pandemic the IMAP Program through Global Lynx guided me through what seemed like an insurmountable amount of information and made it easily digestible. The instructors were knowledgeable, helpful, and always ready for questions and the course materials were thorough and easy to follow. After receiving certifications in DevOps, ITIL, and Scrum Master Certified, I was able to find not just a new job, but a new career as well."

"The IMAP program has benefitted me by helped me gain an industry recognized credentialin DevOps. The training I received has helped me to know and understand how to work in an Agile environment with my current employer, which helps me to add value to my dev team. The IMAP program has also helped me to build my network of professionals both in the business And tech industries, allowing me to branch further out in my local technical community"

"The IMAP program through Global Lynx has been fantastic and opened up new career opportunities for me. With IMAP I was able to be a part of live classes and instruction with knowledgeable and experienced trainers. The education and materials that were provided helped me pass all of the exams on the 1st try with no out-of-pocket spending. The instructors were professionals in their fields with years of expertise and real-life stories to help us learn and apply the concepts. With the certifications, I can go on and look for a number of different jobs in a new career field that I would not have been qualified for before participating in the IMAP program. Working with Global Lynx made the application process, attending courses, and taking the exams smooth and easy. I HIGHLY recommend the IMAP program through Global Lynx to anyone who is unemployed or underemployed to help break into the Information Technology career field."

"I'm not sure where my job search would be without the IMAP program and the work done by Global Lynx to provide the courses and amazing instructors. I was able to take advantage of 3 of the courses offered. I would not have been able to afford them due to the length of my unemployment (2 years). I gained confidence, knowledge, and a boost to my profile/resume. Relevant and highly sought after skills. I can't place value on the importance of this. This program saved me and my family. I spent two years looking non stop for a new opportunity. No luck. Once I was able to add two certificates to my profile, I had three job offers within a month. I start my new opportunity in two weeks, which is a larger role than the one I was released from, and I feel it is the IMAP program and Global Lynx that put me over the top.  The IMAP program truly was a life saver for me and my family. "

"I have thoroughly enjoyed both of my classes I have taken at Global Lynx. The instruction and material was exceptional (John Buk), and the support and guidance (Ben French) is top notch. ITIL and DevOps was something I hadn't been exposed to, but after taking both classes I now have a solid knowledge of each of them! Thank you for providing such a great program!"

"I recently spoke to my candidates who are both working with you regarding their training with Global Lynx. I am happy to say they are both impressed and appreciative of the opportunity and are looking forward to their next courses. I wanted to tell you thank you for taking great care of our military members. I appreciate the service and training you are providing them. They overwhelmingly told me they would recommend your program to others."

"Your courses find a way to breakdown industry standard IT courses in a comprehensive way. As a newcomer into the world of IT. The knowledge I have acquired in these courses and the certificates obtained will help propel my career forward in the future."

"When the pandemic began, I was released from employment. A friend sent me a posting about the state of Ohio working with the unemployed to train and further their working skill set through certifications. I applied to Global Lynx’s program offering training in my field of IT development ,and offering certification training towards goals I had set before losing employment. Working with the Team has been fantastic. Helping me achieve ITIL4 certification within a week and now moving on to Network and Security + certifications. Getting in touch with the Team at Global Lynx has been an enormous ray of sunshine in these darker days we have been living in."
