OIIT successfully reached our goal and placed 101 Tech Apprentices in Boston-area companies for the summer! The Tech Apprentice Program is a seven-week paid internship opportunity at local companies for technology skilled high school juniors and seniors from Boston and the metro Boston area. A collaboration between TechBoston/OIIT, the Boston Private Industry Council (PIC), and Boston Area Advanced Technological Educational Connections (BATEC), the program offers students a great opportunity to explore their technology interests while developing professional skills in a real-world setting. It also gives companies the ability to develop a much needed pipeline of technology-skilled individuals while also providing Boston youth with a unique experience to gain hands-on learning. Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Massachusetts hosted a luncheon to welcome the apprentices. Have a productive summer!
