The ITMLP course was outstanding! The instructor did a great job with the materials and being able to network with other IT Management professionals helped kickstart my creativity in new initiatives at my workplace. I would highly recommend this program to anyone in IT Management or looking to move up the IT Ladder into Management. The insight provided by both the trainer and other professionals in the class was awesome.

I found the ITMLE certification to be valuable for current and aspiring IT executives/leaders. It provides knowledge and skills you don’t find in a traditional classroom format for the IT professional who is focused on leadership growth. The content on core areas of people, process, and technology from an executive perspective in my opinion are completely aligned with the requirements of any IT leadership role. Excellent certification to have in your toolbox!

Spending the time to obtain the ITMLP and ITMLE certifications was well spent! It complimented my experience and my credibility. It provided me with a platform to share my experiences with peer IT professionals, gave me applicable and useful information, and left me with a set of tools needed to continue growing and evolving.
