Our Community
We are proud of the amazing technology community that has developed throughout the Midwest over the past 25 years and are honored to be part of it.
Centriq Training is committed to the development of the IT workforce and the IT community throughout the Midwest. Our History is proof of it and Our People are proud Midwesterners (either by birth or conversion). We’re locally owned and have locations you can return to time and time again. Our revenue goes back into the Kansas City and St. Louis economies and supports other local companies. We are proud of the role we play in these great cities.
