Client Testimonials
"I liked the fact that the object oriented phases were broken down even more and explained. I also liked the roles section to help with determining who should be considered for specific roles in the project."

Re-skilling/New Hire Boot Camps
An effective Boot Camp for an adult learner combines multiple education delivery methods to create the highest quality results. LearnQuest’s objective is for each student to graduate the Boot Camp with the same core skill-set and with the ability to productively apply that knowledge to their project assignments. LearnQuest offers Java/J2EE and .Net re-skilling bootcamps. LearnQuest’s Distributed Systems Re-skilling Boot Camp includes the following key components:
Overview
Assessments
LearnQuest offers a multi-level assessment program designed to measure student progress throughout the Boot Camp as well as retention of subject matter during the post- training period. LearnQuest offers both web-based and pen and paper assessments.
Technology Learning Seminars
Technology Overviews and Learning Sessions can be scheduled prior to the kickoff of each Boot Camp. During these brief sessions, the basic concept and structure for the Boot Camp is presented along with general overview of the technology and topics covered. This “pre-training” activity would provide each student with a base level familiarity of concepts and language that will be presented in detail during the Boot Camp and provide direction for self study prior to the start of the Boot Camp. The Technology Overview sessions may be delivered 2-3 weeks prior to the start of the Boot Camp.
Classroom Instructor-Led Training
During the lecture portion of the class, students are encouraged to ask questions and to bring real-life scenarios into the discussion. This allows students to make a connection between theory and application, associating the newly learned material to the technology they are in which they are currently skilled
All lectures are immediately followed by lab exercises so that students have an opportunity to apply the knowledge gained in the lecture. All LearnQuest technical classes are a minimum of 50% hands-on.
Cumulative Life-Cycle Project Work
LearnQuest provides a project for the students to work on throughout the bootcamp or can create an example using company-specific documents to detail requirements that will be designed and implemented in the class exercises. The participants will be able to implement a system using company-specific standards and documents as opposed to generic exercises to solidify concepts.
Blended Learning
LearnQuest offers a blended learning approach leveraging either a client’s e-learning library or via the use of LearnQuest custom e-Learning content.
Project Mentoring
Following the completion of the classroom training, LearnQuest offers project mentoring to support the students working on their initial projects. LearnQuest has extensive experience providing one-on-one and project group mentoring. By scheduling post-training project mentoring, LearnQuest instructors work with the students on an actual deliverable under the guidance of an experienced professional. Mentoring can be scheduled full-time, or at set intervals of a project timeline.
Target Audience
LearnQuest can adjust the content and duration to accommodate the specific backgrounds of the participants. The three types of students are:
- Current Mainframe (Procedural) Developers
- Current Client Server (Object Oriented) Developers
- Any Student showing aptitude in information systems by holding a degree in a related computer science field, but may have no experience in IS development
