From the President

A committed team like no other…

I have had the privilege of building an amazing team. Talent and integrity are a rare gem in today’s business world, and finding people who truly have the heart to serve, coupled with the brains and discipline to execute, is nothing short of a great challenge. We are blessed with a group of phenomenal team members — all of them focused on serving each other and every student who walks through our door, virtually or in person, with nothing short of five-star student service and life-changing training. That same standard is what we bring to the organizations who trust us to develop their people.

Since 2019, Applied Technology Academy has helped federal, military, and enterprise organizations build and sustain the technical workforce their missions depend on. We deliver vendor-based and vendor-neutral certification and knowledge-based training across a broad catalog — 5G, Blockchain Training Alliance, CertNexus, Cisco, CompTIA, CMMC, DevOps Institute, EC-Council, Hack The Box, ISACA, ISC2, ITIL, Microsoft, OffSec, Project Management Institute, Python Institute, SANS (Authorized Distributor), ScrumStudy, Six Sigma, Tableau, and VMware — so that teams gain skills that are both cutting edge and globally recognized. Where an off-the-shelf course doesn’t fit the mission, our curriculum developers and instructional designers build custom, skills-based programs for our military customers and beyond, mapped to the roles and work roles our clients actually need to fill.

Workforce development is more than exam readiness. Our programs are designed to move people along a deliberate path — from foundational knowledge to demonstrated capability — through a mixture of book knowledge, practical history, real-world scenarios, and hands-on experience with the equipment, software, and environments practitioners encounter in today’s IT and cyber operations. That approach helps organizations close skill gaps, meet DoW 8140 qualification requirements, build bench depth and promotion pipelines, and retain the talent they have already invested in. For the individual, it means a clear route to advancement. For the organization, it means a more capable, more ready, more resilient workforce.

Whatever your goals — personal enrichment, workforce qualification requirements, or the skills and certifications your mission demands — our experienced and award-winning instructors and staff will dedicate themselves to helping you achieve your individual and team objectives.

Experience the ATA difference for yourself: quality, five-star service, integrity, and commitment. We welcome the opportunity to help you build your workforce.

— All my best, Lynn
