How to Break Into Tech: Learn to Code with Pursuit

Description

Join us!

Pursuit is a NYC-based social impact organization that trains adults to learn the important tech and professional skills needed to succeed in the tech industry. By connecting talent with opportunity, Pursuit empowers graduates to bring change to their families, tech companies, and communities across the nation.

We aim to build a diverse and inclusive cohort that represent the demographics of NYC:

• 70% are Black or Latinx
• 60% do not have Bachelors Degrees
• 50% identify as female
• 50% receive some sort of public benefits
• 40% are immigrants

Our fellows get jobs at companies like Spotify, Twitter, Kickstarter, LinkedIn, and Oscar after they complete our 12-month intensive program.

Plan!

Our info session typically runs for1 hour. It includes an overview of the tech industry, a discussion on current trends, a deep dive into our program, and a Q&A session. We also invite a guest Pursuit Fellow for additional insight into the program.

You can join with your mobile phone, tablet, or a laptop.
