Creating IT Career Awareness Among Minorities

Empowering Communities Through IT Career Opportunities

Program Overview

“Creating IT Career Awareness Among Minorities” is a community-driven initiative aimed at educating individuals from underrepresented
backgrounds about the opportunities available in Information Technology (IT). This program is designed to break barriers, encourage career shifts,
and provide a clear path to IT careers for those who may not have a science or technology background.

• Those who believe an IT career requires a traditional science background.
• Low-income earners seeking a transition into a stable and well-paying field.
• Anyone looking to upskill and break into the tech industry through short-term training programs

• IT offers high-demand jobs with competitive salaries.
• No prior experience or formal degree is required for many entry-level positions.
• Boot camp training programs can help individuals gain the necessary skills in less than a year.
• IT careers offer flexibility, remote work opportunities, and long-term growth potential.

• Awareness Sessions: We visit communities, organizations, and events to share knowledge about IT careers and their benefits.
• Career Guidance: Personalized career counseling to help individuals identify the right IT path based on their skills and interests.
• Training Linkage: Connecting individuals with reputable IT boot camps and certification programs that provide job-ready skills.
