Blogs How Heirs Technologies Is Cultivating a Culture of Technical Excellence Publish on February 7, 2025 At a time when technology is rewriting the rules of business, technical excellence isn’t just a buzzword– it’s the backbone of innovation. Think about it: every industry, from healthcare to finance, is being transformed by digital tools and platforms. But here’s the catch: the pace of change is so rapid that skills become outdated almost as quickly as they’re acquired. According to the World Economic Forum, 85 million jobs could be displaced by automation by 2025, while 97 million new roles requiring advanced technical skills will emerge. This isn’t just a shift; it’s a seismic change. Companies that don’t invest in technical talent risk being left behind. At Heirs Technologies, we are not just keeping up–we are leading the charge. Our commitment to technical excellence is not just about staying relevant; it is about setting the standard. And that’s where initiatives like the Supplementary Technical Engineering Program (STEP) come in.TrendingHow Multi-Factor Authentication Can Save Your Business from Breaches STEP Cohort 2: Building the Future, One Skill at a Time Let’s break it down: STEP is more than just a training program—it’s a launchpad for technical mastery. Designed to equip participants with industry-recognised certifications and hands-on experience, the program covers critical areas like: CompTIA Network+: Mastering network infrastructure and cybersecurity. CompTIA A+ Core 2: Building a rock-solid IT support foundation. CompTIA Security+: Learning to protect systems and data like a pro. CompTIA Cloud+: Diving into the essentials of cloud computing. CompTIA DataSys+: Managing and optimising IT data systems. CompTIA Data+: Turning raw data into actionable insights. The program’s structure is as rigorous as it is rewarding. Over a defined timeline, participants engage in mentorship from industry experts, hands-on project-based learning, and certification preparation that sets them up for success. But here’s the thing: STEP isn’t for everyone. We’re looking for candidates who are passionate about technology, hungry to learn and committed to excellence. Why? Because we’re not just building skills—we’re building a community of high achievers who will shape the future of tech. The ROI of Technical Excellence: Why It Pays to Invest Let’s talk numbers for a second. According to LinkedIn, 94% of employees say they would stay at a company longer if it invested in their career development. And companies that prioritise upskilling report a 24% higher profit margin than those that don’t. At Heirs Technologies, we’ve seen firsthand how investing in technical expertise drives innovation and growth. For example, professionals with CompTIA certifications earn an average of 15% more than their non-certified peers, according to Global Knowledge. But the benefits go beyond salaries. By equipping our team with cutting-edge skills, we’re creating a pipeline of talent that can tackle complex challenges, drive innovation, and deliver results. It’s not just an investment in individuals—it’s an investment in the future of our company. Real Stories, Real Impact: What Our Alumni Has to Say Don’t just take my word for it—here’s what some of our alumni and STEP graduates have to say: “From gaining newfound confidence in troubleshooting and networking to the invaluable boost from the soft skills training, this journey has been nothing short of life-changing. The fireside chats with seasoned tech professionals, agile mindset development sessions, and work readiness culture training were nothing short of inspiring. If I were to sum up this experience in one word, it would be “Empowering.” Thank you for investing in my growth and making this journey unforgettable!” — Emmanuel Ikhidero, STEP Cohort 1 Graduate in CompTIA Network+ “Completing the CompTIA N+ track at the STEP Program was an eye-opener for me.

However, this program broadened my perspective, exposing me to exciting career opportunities in IT support and networking.” — Abdulsalam Agbelega, STEP Cohort 1 Graduate in CompTIA Network+ These stories aren’t just testimonials—they’re proof of the transformative power of technical excellence.
