This project is continuing a successful IT apprenticeship program that provides students the opportunity to receive industry-based technical experiences while earning an associate's degree. This activity helps meet the urgent need of local employers for the emerging digital economy. The program includes an online course for employment readiness, communication skills and job search skills. A key component of the program is a full-time apprenticeship coach whose responsibility is to prepare students for work, monitor student progress and to encourage local employers to hire displaced workers. Goals of the project include partnering with local industry to increase the number of available positions and to place an increasing number of students with a particular emphasis on women, minorities and displaced workers. Mentoring and marketing strategies are being assessed and results will be disseminated to allow other organizations to implement a similar program.

该项目是一个成功的IT学徒计划的延续，该计划为学生提供了在获得副学士学位的同时获得行业技术经验的机会。这项活动有助于满足当地雇主对新兴数字经济的迫切需求。 该计划包括就业准备，沟通技巧和求职技能的在线课程。 该方案的一个关键组成部分是一名全职学徒教练，其责任是为学生的工作做好准备，监测学生的进步，并鼓励当地雇主雇用失业工人。 该项目的目标包括与当地行业合作，增加现有职位的数量，并安排越来越多的学生，特别重视妇女、少数民族和失业工人。 正在评估指导和营销战略，并将传播结果，以使其他组织能够实施类似的方案。
