Microtek Computer Labs

As far as third-​party training facility this place is pretty good. Seems well-​appointed and a dedicated and responsive on-​site staff. They serve a light breakfast, hot lunch (frankly, they had me at hot lunch especially when bring held hostage for training), and cookies for the afternoon snack. The session I attended here didn’t require computers but we had to sit at those boring classroom style tables. Room can’t be reconfigured into pods or other configurations probably because it’s primarily used for tech training.

Nice facility — good location, lots of fast computers that worked well, and nice breakfast spread every morning. Good setup in room — liked the whiteboard paint.
Drinks & snacks provided all day. Also, 2:00 cookies!

This is a really nice training facility. I was here for a three day CTT+ class offered via Freisen, Kaye, and Associates. FKA is based out of Canada but offer classes all over. This is one of the locations they happen to conduct training and I think it’s a great place. Microtek offered coffee, drinks such as coke and water, danishes, bagels and muffins in the morning, and cookies after 2pm. It has a very nice break room and the class rooms have good lighting.

As a person who has run a technical training program for several years I’ve got nothing but good things to say about the service Microtek has provided us at their DC location. Its in a very central location, easy to navigate and the set up is very professional and always on point. If I have run into a problem its usually something they will step right up and fix immediately.
We typically have a few classes every quarter here and they have been very accommodating with scheduling and cancellations if needed. They can provide catering and also have complementary tea, coffee and water as well as snacks in the afternoon. The hot cookies are probably the best part of the day and you will generally see people start lining up for them.
Overall I’ve had good experiences here, but do note that it is a little more expensive than most… but you do get what you pay for.

It’s ok. Clean boring computer stations.

The facility itself is good, but they really need to turn off the unused computers and monitors, or at least put them in sleep mode. 25 computers * 400w each = 10k watts being used, in just one of their many rooms. That’s a huge waste of resources that is completely unnecessary. We only had eight students in our class, there’s absolutely no reason for that.
