Mission: Per Scholas' mission is to advance economic equity through rigorous training for tech careers and to connect skilled talent to leading businesses. A thriving workforce starts with equitable access to education. By providing skills training and access to employer networks to individuals often excluded from tech careers, Per Scholas envisions a tech workforce as diverse as the customers it serves. Per Scholas is a national organization that has been advancing economic mobility for 25 years. Through rigorous training, professional development, and robust employer connections, we prepare individuals traditionally underrepresented in technology for high-growth careers in the industry. We partner with leading employers to build more diverse talent pools, directly connecting our graduates to new career opportunities with leading employers. With campuses in 17 cities, Per Scholas has trained 16,000+ individuals at no cost to learners, building bridges to careers in technology. (Less)
