Forte Knowledge is a certification that can help you to set your foot into the IT filed. But just as any certification program is depends on your own hard work to learn and to really be good at what you learned after the class is over. QA Manual instructor is amazing. The class is about 15 people, so that everyone can get needed attention from the instructor. The idea is to prepare students to have enough knowledge/skills to enter the workforce after the graduation. If you do well (85 or above) you will be offered an internship. They never promised me any job placements, as it's impossible to predict what jobs will be on the market 2 months in advance, but they do try to keep in touch with top students after they graduate in case some entry level positions come along. Overall I did decent in class and decided not to pursue QA opportunities, as I realized it was not for me. However, I still remember everything I studied in class. Forte Knowledge was a great opportunity to learn a new skill and I know quite a few of my classmates were successful in finding jobs afterwards. read more

I am a graduate of the Manual QA course. The course itself was very interesting and educational. I had no previous experience in the field prior of taking this course and I did very well. The instructor Yemi did an amazing job explaining everything to our group and preparing us for the real world. I have been offered an internship while still enrolled in the course. Due to graduating as top of the class student I have been offered a full ride scholarship for future courses that Forte Knowledge offer (Java and Test Automation Selenium) Additionally, I was offered an internship as a TA for the next Manual QA course. I have to admit taking this course was probably one of the best choices I have ever made for my future career success. I strongly recommend Forte Knowledge to anyone who is interested in changing their career to the IT field, or expanding their knowledge. read more
