Active

I’m currently active duty Army working in Space & Missile Defense as the S3 OPS NCOIC. For the past three years I’ve been preparing myself for retirement in 2025. I completed my BSIT and started pursuing certification namely NET+, SEC+, and CASP+. With that said, MD Technical School has been by far the best training & certification program I’ve been apart of in terms of professionalism, expertise, knowledge, mentorship, and training. I would recommend to any one of my fellow service members, vets, or civilians pursuing a career in IT, physical security, acquisitions etc to be a part of this program.  Aside from all that I’ve stated, the mentorship is next level. I’ve never had someone so eager to put me on, just as long I’m doing my due diligence. This provided me with a sense of calm and excitement that I wouldn’t have to navigate unfamiliar territory (the civilian work force) by myself.

Retired Military

The IT classes and training from MD Tech have been a complete career changer for me and my family. Since retiring from the military, I was able to enter the job market as a capable technician and compete in a challenging industry. The class focused on real world applications required to be successful from day one on the job. The instructor is knowledgeable and present the information in a way that allow students to understand the technical procedures and protocols but really re enforce these necessary skills with valuable hands-on training and labs that complement the learning. Once the training was completed, I started my first IT job as a Network Admin. I was nervous upon starting the job but soon realized that my duties and requirements on the job was covered in the classes. I was ready and prepared from day one. Since starting as a Network Admin, I was promoted to a Wireless Network Admin and UC Engineer as my current position. I highly recommend the classes from MD Tech and have plans in the future to attend more. These classes are proven to help those seeking to achieve in the information technology career field.

I was introduced to MD Tech Solutions, LLC in August 2018, and decided to sit in on a Networking class (IP Networking On The Job Training)
to see if I would have any interest in switching careers. At that time, I was working for the United States Postal Service and was looking for a less
physically demanding position. After the first hour of class I decided that this was the route I wanted to pursue. I was finally learning something new,
and the instructors were a major factor that kept me engaged. After I completed the course, I was eligible to take the Security Plus as well as the CCNA exams. The instructors helped along the way with great study tips and how to go about using my time wisely on the certification exams. Once I successfully passed the certification exams MD Tech Solutions immediately guided me with resume writing, what kind of entry level/mid level positions I could apply for and mock interviewing. I went on a few interviews and landed my first position at XXXXXXX as a IT Service Delivery Rep in XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. 

I reached back out to Lance Durante (President /CEO) to see if MD Tech Solutions offered any Cyber Security Classes, and he enrolled me into the CCT (Certified Cybersecurity Technician) Training course they offer. This course was packed with so many learning tools and a rigorous amount of information. After completing this course MD Tech once again guided me through resume reconstructing, interviewing skills and help with job searching. I just landed another position at XXXXXXXX, LLC as a System Engineer in support of the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. 

Lance Durante and MD Tech Solutions, LLC really provide people with a step-by-step path for a smooth transition into the Networking field.

I came to MD Tech School for a better career opportunity not only for myself but for my whole family. I was stuck at a dead end job where your raise really meant nothing, no growth for advancement and the work kept pilling more and more. You come to a point in your life where either you stay where you are at or you chase your dreams, and I wanted to chase my dreams. Sometimes in life we doubt ourselves, because we think that you can’t achieve that because it’s to hard or impossible to reach, but nothing in life is unreachable.

What I have learned about myself is that MD Tech school believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself, they gave me the courage and the strength to better myself. They showed me the tools and the Certifications to advanced my skills in the working IT fields. The sky is the limit for me now, and will keep improving my skills to advance my career opportunities. The trainers were amazing and till this day I keep in contact with them. On my first IT job, I doubled my salary and I am so thankful for MD Tech for providing the keys to my future.

Mr. Durante, I want to thank you for providing me the opportunity of a lifetime. My life has changed forever! MD Tech Solutions provided an amazing level of hands on Network Engineering experience that positioned me to a $100,000+ salary. When the opportunity to train with MD Tech Solutions was presented to me, I was working as a manager earning $30,000. However, my peers were very successful. I was open to new opportunities and the IT field was and is trending and in demand. After completing what I consider a 5 Star training program I completed my CCNA and Security + certifications. I am now working in the Information Technology industry at Andrew Airforce Base as a Network Engineer making $110,000 a year! With these certifications I literally receive calls every day from companies for Network Engineer positions. I look forward to continued work with MD Tech and to give back by training our future Network Engineer’s.

Before MD Tech I went to a 4-year college and got my degree in a major where it is almost impossible to get a job and earn the amount of money to make a decent living. I took this route because I had little to no guidance after high school and assumed that as long as I earned my college degree that I would always have a good paying job no matter what. Instead, I landed jobs that still paid me the same amount I was making before I went to a 4-year college. There were many times that I wanted to go back and earn a different degree and start over, but I stopped myself because I did not want to make the same mistake and financially hurt myself even more.

Eventually after years of being at the same job with minimal raises each year I made the decision to attend MD Tech School and take the risk of going into the IT Field, something I knew very little about. In the beginning I had doubts but continued with my journey. The trainers were patient and readily available to answer questions and go over the material step by step. The program taught me everything I need to know about IT and in the process, I became Security+ certified. On my first IT interview I was able to answer ALL technical questions and land a job that doubled my salary. MD tech gave me the courage to start over again and change my life. My only regret now is that I didn’t sign up sooner. Thank you, MD Technical School, for giving me my second chance.
