There’s high demand for software developers in the state, and the City of Minneapolis is helping make it easier for unemployed or underemployed residents to train in this field through a scholarship program at Prime Digital Academy.
Prime Digital Academy is a new software engineering school offering an 18- to 30-week learning program to help smart, driven learners get up to speed for entry-level jobs in software engineering. Nearly 30 local businesses have signed on to host apprenticeships, serve on the curriculum board and hire graduates.
Through a partnership with the City, the Minnesota High Tech Association and the Creating IT Futures Foundation, Prime offers scholarships to people who would otherwise be unable to attend. Applications are now being accepted online for the first cohort of students, with the first classes starting March 3.
More information is available on Prime Digital Academy’s website.
