Three Components
Education. Exposure. Experience.
Education
We offer FREE, after-school coding courses taught by qualified, tech industry professionals. No prior coding experience required. All classes are hands-on and project based in order to build portfolios. Our students participate in 9 months of classes in order to qualify for a paid, technical internship.
Course Pathway to Internship
- Begin with our Software Development Essentials course to learn Python language and the basics of coding
- Explore more of our course offerings ranging from mobile app development to Embedded Systems
- Apply for Elite 101 & Elite 102 to build on those basic skills and prepare for technical skill interviews
- Interview with top technical companies for the opportunity to earn a paid internship during the summer
Exposure
We provide our students with ongoing professional development through STEM Case Competitions, resume & interview support, professional skills workshops and numerous networking opportunities.
Experience
We prepare and place our high school students into paid, technical internships with our Visionary Partners. This invaluable experience not only provides our students with an income while still in high school, but also improves their candidacy for 4-year undergraduate programs, STEM major completion and eventual entry into a STEM career.
