FOUNDED BY CONCERNED AREA EMPLOYERS WHO SAW A DRAMATIC NEED FOR A SKILLED IT WORKFORCE, TECH FOUNDRY IS ON A MISSION TO BUILD THE MOST DYNAMIC AND FLUID IT WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING PROGRAMS EVER CREATED. DRIVEN BY SPECIFIC EMPLOYER DEMANDS, WE COMBINE HANDS-ON SKILL FOCUSED TECHNICAL TRAINING WITH PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, WHICH AIDS US IN OUR OVERARCHING DUTY TO ELEVATE AN UNDER-SERVED, AT-RISK POPULATION INTO TOMORROW'S IT WORKFORCE.

AT NO COST TO THE STUDENTS, WE PREPARE A CROSS-SECTION OF THE POPULATION TO STEP INTO A SUSTAINABLE CAREER IN THE INFORMATION T
