More information about the ITWorks Program:
With over 500 graduates, ITWorks is a proven program training young people in Philadelphia, PA; Wilmington, DE; and Las Vegas, NV for entry-level IT careers. During the FREE 16-week program, students spent the first 11 weeks in the classroom learning about PC hardware, troubleshooting, IT networking, security, and much more to prepare for the CompTIA A+ certification. Then, students gain real-life, hands-on experience during a five-week internship at a local corporation or nonprofit. The program is offered twice a year – Spring and Fall – and is bolstered by the support of over 100 volunteers in each location.
