Greater Eugene Area Apprenti Affiliate

Nice article about how Apprenti is a key part of the tech talent diversity initiative in Massachusetts.
We have this in Lane County, too. We'd love to tell you more and help your organization hire and retain more diverse talent.

New initiative aims to diversify tech talent - The Bay State Banner The Innovation Institute, an economic development agency housed within the larger quasi-governmental organization the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, has just launched an initiative aimed at increasing diversity in local tech industries.

We are excited to be a local partner with Redefining Women in Tech at the Ultra Tech Jobs event May 29! Will we see you there?

❤️🌈🎉 We had a great time meeting with community business leaders and talking about their hiring needs and practices at Interface yesterday. We'll be at Ultra Tech Jobs on May 29th from 5:30PM-7:30PM. Let's have a conversation about diverse hiring and technology apprenticeship!

LWP and Technology Association of Oregon showcased the Greater Eugene Area Apprenti Affiliate program at the INTERFACE Conference this week in Eugene. We are currently recruiting businesses for apprentices.

Welcome Travis, our newest apprentice! Travis will begin his IT Support Professional apprenticeship at Homes for Good Housing Agency in October. Pictured from left to right: Travis Stewart (Apprentice, Homes for Good) and Curtis Wyant (IT Director, Homes for Good).

IT Support Professional is the newest apprenticeship role for the Greater Eugene Area Apprenti Affiliate! Contact us to learn more about how this role can benefit your company.

Congratulations to XS Media for being the first employer partner for the Greater Eugene Area Apprenti Program to select an apprentice!

"We were nervous about the Apprenti process because it's such a different approach to recruiting talent from our traditional options. The Eugene Apprenti team made everything so easy for us and the candidates we were sent were stellar. They were eager to learn, break into tech, and make a difference in our organization. We're so happy with the process and already looking forward to the next cohort." - Stephen Parac, XS Media
