// Corporate Training

Upskill your whole team.

We offer custom cohort pricing for organizations building or upskilling IT teams, with on-site and remote delivery available across the Wiregrass region and beyond. Group rates scale with cohort size.

// Why Our Prices Are Lower

Workforce development, not margin maximization.

Most IT bootcamps charge $2,000–$15,000. Our mission is closing the Wiregrass region's IT skills gap — not maximizing profit. We keep overhead low and pass the savings directly to students.
