We've Gone Virtual
|
Since the shelter-in-place order commenced, our team took many strides to prepare for our first-ever virtual programs. We’re proud to announce that we’ve officially launched a 4-Week Summer Intel Fellowship with Oakland Public Education Fund and a 7-week Summer Bootcamp in partnership with Lao Family Community Development. Our 38 Summer Intel students have been learning raspberry pi, while our 18 Summer Bootcamp students learn web development. Both cohorts will be receiving a stipend and daily lunch as they learn how to navigate a career in the new digital space. (Shoutout to DoorDash for helping us supply gift cards to our Intel group!) We look forward to sharing their work with you in the upcoming weeks!
