Brooklyn digital access org NPower is expanding to Baltimore, St. Louis, North Texas and the San Francisco Bay Area.
The new local branches follow a $3 million grant from the Fund II Foundation.
Sister site Technical.ly Baltimore has the details:
The organization will seek to provide entry-level IT training to 18-to-25-year-olds who are not currently employed or in school. Along with training in web development and project management, the training program is designed to prepare students for the CompTIA A+ exam. That’s a key for IT workers, said Patrick Cohen, national director of NPower’s Technology Service Corps.
NPower, a nonprofit based in Downtown Brooklyn’s MetroTech Center, was nominated for a Brooklyn Innovation Award last December.
