Why Eddie Teaches IT Works



Certifications are Your Pathway to Success.
With or Without College.



Times have changed! Gone are the days when getting a college degree means you'll get hired for a tech job. Today, most IT and Cybersecurity jobs require certifications and/or experience. Passing certification exams proves that you are ready, and employers figure that a well prepared college grad should be able to pass these exams anyway.

The result of this shift is you can skip college entirely!

    Student Testimonials

    Teenah Eco
    Technical Support Analyst

    "I had been a working professional for 10+ years, I had no prior experience working in IT, and to pivot into a completely different career industry sounded risky.

    Eddie played a huge part with supporting me, encouraging me, and he gave me the reassurance I needed to do my best.

    In one year, I obtained my A+, Net+, and Sec+. Soon after I landed my first IT role as a Technical Support Analyst.

    Eddie's teaching style is very casual, thorough, and fun. It's almost like having a group discussion on the topics. He guides you through all the concepts and focuses on anything that you're having issues understanding. He will also take the time to answer any clarifying questions and be there for you if you need individual help.

    He offers resume reviews, and career advice as well. Just think of Eddie like he's a buffet of IT knowledge.

    Eddie really cares about his students and their success. He is there for you from the beginning, from day one, and he will be there for you every step of the way...and even after. "


    Jahmar Lowe
    Field Service Technician

    "Working with Eddie has definitely been a positive experience. His teaching style is hands-on and would usually take place in a group setting, but he was also flexible in working with students one-on-one. It is pretty easy to tell that he cares a lot about his students and wants them to succeed.

    I can definitely say that working with Eddie on my Network+ and Security+ certifications helped me get to where I am today."


    Jericho Capati
    Systems Administrator

    "I am thrilled to share my experience with Eddie, an absolutely amazing instructor who stands out above the rest. Eddie is not your typical instructor found in YouTube videos, online classes, or even university lecture halls. His unique approach to teaching sets him apart in the realm of IT education.

    What makes Eddie exceptional is his remarkable patience and unwavering dedication to his students. Unlike many instructors I've had in the past who simply deliver content or quickly get to the bottom line, Eddie goes above and beyond to ensure that you not only grasp the material but truly understand it, no matter how intricate or difficult the subject is. He will take as much time as needed to ensure that your understanding is at 100%. This way of teaching tells me that Eddie genuinely cares about the success of his students.

    Eddie also extends his support to areas crucial for launching a successful IT career. Having worked in various positions within the IT field, he offers invaluable resume and career advice. This personalized guidance proved instrumental for me, as I was able to secure more interviews and ultimately land a high-paying System Administrator position, all thanks to his insights and recommendations. Eddie is all you need to kickstart or even advance your IT career. He not only has the knowledge and experience, but also the genuine willingness to share and guide. His impact on my professional journey has been transformative and I truly cannot thank him enough."
