After 12 years spent with a racquet in hand teaching the techniques of mastering tennis, Pierre wishes to change his profession to enter the field of IT. But the environment is too vast for him to be able to target a profession, so Pierre carries out a skills assessment which confirms his new path to follow: web developer. He explains his choice, his experience and his training within O’clock.
Convert quickly and efficiently
« My skills assessment was extremely beneficial, since I quickly turned to the profession of web developer. I was able to measure that there was a certain ease in retraining and a great possibility of employment “explains Pierre when he talks about his retraining. And when we ask him what motivated his choice to integrate the training of web developer in 6 months within the O’clock school, he affirms, as evidence: ” This resumption of study should not drag out too long; at the time, I was 33 years old and a family life! The telepresential format offered by O’clock was perfectly suited to my situation to lead my life as a student and take care of my son “. Moreover, he absolutely did not imagine resuming his studies by treading the classrooms again.
And regarding the course format, Pierre is just as enthusiastic: “ It was very nice ! Even in telepresence, I always rubbed shoulders with the same students. This created bonds that allowed us to work together after class. Mutual assistance was permanent and very active “. These links, even through interposed screens, allow students to move forward together and more quickly because, as Pierre points out, ” there is always one who understands before the others and who shares his knowledge! »
Pierre is full of praise for his training undertaken with the O’clock school and provided by professionals with whom he is ” easy to exchange “. The young man remembers from his training with O’clock that ” this teaching teaches above all to learn and develop one’s skills as one goes along. O’clock training facilitates the learning of other technologies! »
At the end of his course and fully satisfied with his retraining, he decided to consolidate his skills by integrating work-study training, still with O’clock.
And today ? After 3 years of teaching, Pierre obtained a CDI in the company which hosted him on a work-study program, like 70% of the people supported by O’clock. According to him, if web development is a buoyant profession, it is also a passionate choice: “ It’s a great creative job that, in my opinion, should not be done by default. You have to be aware that a developer spends 8 to 9 hours a day in front of his computer! » After tennis, Pierre has become a web developer completely exalted by his new job!
