With over 1000 graduates, ITWorks is a proven training program, preparing young people in Philadelphia, PA; Wilmington, DE; and Las Vegas, NV for entry-level IT careers.
During the FREE 16-week program, students spend the first 11 weeks learning about PC hardware, troubleshooting, IT networking, security, and much more to prepare for the Cisco IT Essentials and the CompTIA A+ certification. Then, students gain real-life, hands-on experience during a five-week internship at a local corporation or nonprofit. The ITWorks program is offered twice a year – Spring and Fall – and is bolstered by the support of over 100 volunteers in each location.
With the Cisco IT Essentials certification and the CompTIA A+ certification, graduates are prepared for roles as Help Desk Technicians, End User Support Techs, IT Specialists, Field Technicians, and more!
