Three Levels of Training
As a Genesys Works trainee, you will progress through three levels of training:
Level 1 - This is the entry level for the IT Training program. While in Level 1, you will learn the basics of electronics, PC maintenance, cabling, networking, software applications and operating systems. Successful completion of Level 1 qualifies you to enter the more demanding training of Level 2 and to work for Genesys Works clients.
Level 2 - In this level of training, you will delve much deeper into the subjects covered in your Level 1 training.
This level also qualifies you for the more challenging jobs available with our clients.
Level 3 - This is the most advanced level of the IT Training program. Success in Level 3 is measured by your determination to self-study. Level 3 is an advanced level of study requiring a mature approach to self-study.
Successful completion of Level 3 qualifies you for the most sought-after jobs Genesys Works has to offer.
