Next Steps Certification
Training Centre

Instructor-led and self-guided IT training delivered online across Canada. A proud Cisco Network Academy member, we train for mastery — not just to pass the exam.

Three practices. One purpose.

We train individuals and organizations in the skills the modern workplace actually needs — network engineering, cyber security, and the certifications that open doors.

Training

We train to meet and exceed industry certification standards. Not just to pass an exam — but for mastery of the subject, at your speed.

Corporate Development

Custom-built training that meets your needs — onboarding new personnel, policy training delivery, and improving your organization's security posture through awareness.

Consulting

We help organizations grow employees in place. You may already have your next great hire — we'll help you find them and build their next chapter.

Our learning home, and a partnership we're proud of.

Never cohort-based. We teach the individual.

We never forget you're an individual.

With more than 3,000 students behind us, we still believe in bespoke learning paths — not off-the-shelf courseware. Our mentors and instructors have over 50 years of combined experience in classrooms, corporate training, and online delivery.

We specialize in IT training including network and cyber security. We help with onboarding new personnel, policy training development and delivery, and improving your organization's security posture by increasing security awareness — training that sticks because it's designed for the humans in the room, not the template.
