Kaizen, a Japanese term meaning continuous improvement, was a company name prudently selected by our team of entrepreneurs who started this Training Service in 2006. They all had a special vision, a dream to help and support the community using innovative methods. Keeping that goal of service in mind our Kaizen team found that out of the many problems facing our society; unemployment topped the list. Unemployment we have seen creates instability, cripples the economy and acts as a major impediment for growth and wellbeing.
Rapid advancement in technology has taken society to the next level of success but at the same time has acted as a major reason for unemployment. Lack of technical skills in our current workforce has led to massive layoffs and technical jobs have been outsourced.
Keeping this in perspective, our Kaizen team started an IT training and services company that would train the dislocated in the most current in demand technologies to help them achieve their career goals. Kaizen started its mission by collaborating with the DOL to lend a hand in helping the jobless get back to work.
We also realized the key to successful training and placement would be implementing innovative teaching methods, following carefully designed curriculums based on industry standards and introducing on the job training programs.
Our teaching methods have proven successful because they are not purely lecture based but a combination of lecture and hands on Project based training. Since its inception, Kaizen Technologies, Inc has offered exceptional training and delivered the best knowledge from the finest instructors from the industry.
