Cincinnati, OH, November 27, 2013 --(PR.com)-- MAX Technical Training employees will be joining with many of Cincinnati’s finest women-owned businesses at this year’s WE Celebrate Awards ceremony presented by the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber. MAX is one of five finalists in the Chamber’s Best New Product/Service of the Year award!

The new service being recognized is MAX’s Developer Apprentice program which was launched in the fall of 2012. This is an innovative approach to bridging the IT skills gap by fulfilling the business community’s need for software developers and the city’s need to transform unemployed or underemployed residents into satisfied, productive, tax-paying citizens by training them to become Software Developers.

The MAX Technical Training Developer Apprentice program can handle everything from recruiting, assessing and selecting candidates to training and ultimately placing them into new IT careers. Students in the program are trained to use JAVA, .NET, HTML, CSS, ASP.NET, C# and other specific IT skills in order to increase their marketability. Last year, MAX worked with Great American Insurance Group to successfully train and transition 10 people into JAVA developer roles. This year they trained an additional 11 people into certified .NET developers.

“MAX Technical Training’s approach to sourcing new IT Developer talent has been a huge success for us,” says Piyush Singh, VP and CIO at Great American Insurance Group, Property & Casualty Information Technology. “Recruiting JAVA developers has been a challenge for us over the past five years and we were facing the same recruiting challenges as our peers in our industry. We needed something different and long-term. Collaborating with MAX to strengthen our team of JAVA developers has proven to be a rewarding investment.”

The award ceremony will be held the morning of Thursday, December 5th at the Horseshoe Casino in Cincinnati.
