In December 2008, I found myself parting ways with my employer of the last 22 years. I had become rather specialized in the Lotus Notes field and found that computer skill no longer in high demand and the entire IT job market rather depressed.
Several months later, I became aware of Global Information Technology and the programs that it had to offer in networking technologies. I was looking to get valuable training and follow it by taking computer industry certification exams. Quite honestly, I compared it to other local computer school programs and found that dollar for dollar, Global Information Technology was hard to beat.
Upon examining the school, I spoke with my account manager and asked if I could sit in on one of the classes before I committed myself to the program. I found the instructor to be knowledgeable, the labs well-equipped, and I was impressed with what I saw. I immediately enrolled in the Network Administration program and have been very satisfied with my decision.
Global Information Technology offers a wide variety of information technology programs. Classes are available covering the entry level to computers, the use of Microsoft Office applications, web design and development. Also, many IT professional disciplines are available, such as Oracle database, Cisco CCNA, Microsoft MCITP, and many more. I personally found the networking curriculum to be outstanding. The instructors are top-notch and class sizes are small and personable. I am pleased with my account manager, who has given me advice and has often gone the extra mile for me. The class environment is comfortable, and I have found good camaraderie among my classmates. The curriculum schedule is very flexible with classes offered both day and night, seven days per week.
I was very pleased that with each class that prepares you for certification, GIT will provide a voucher for you to take the test at no charge to the student. That is a very valuable inclusion that could cost a student a couple hundred dollars per test if he had to pay for it himself. Certification is a very valuable method that can prove to your employer, or potential employer, that you have mastered a subject. I have been attending the school almost two years now, and I have achieved multiple certifications during that time.
Global Information Technology also has a career placement office. They often hold seminars or one-on-one sessions to assist students in resume building, interviewing techniques, and actual job placement. I recently started a new position as a Network Engineer with US Army position in Warren, and I was made aware of the opening there through GIT.
In conclusion, I am pleased with my education and experience at Global information Technology and would recommend its consideration for a good quality education.

June 2, 2020. Before Global Information Technology I found myself in a “great job market” with no callbacks on the dozens of applications I submitted to companies all over metro Detroit.

I am writing this letter today in recommendation of Global Information Technology (GIT). In the spring of 2008 I learned that my employment position was being off-shored. Of course this was devastating news. Even though I possess a bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, I realized I did not specialize in any specific IT area and [...] Read more
