Why FDM

Our award winning Academy Program

The FDM Academy Program was formed to meet the needs of large corporations who require people with the right skills and work ethic, and can make a contribution from day one. Over the past 20 years FDM has grown tremendously, boasting an award-winning, flagship IT training methodology, responsible for launching the careers of over 3,000 IT enthusiasts.

FDM has devised a solution to the classic catch-22 scenario; you need experience to get a job, but you cannot get a job without experience. Our Academy training also addresses both of the key criticisms from IT leaders on those entering the IT industry; that they are either not educated in, or don’t know how to apply, commercially relevant technical skills, and lack business awareness.
