Breakout Workshop

Pivoting into a high-paying tech job is possible at any age, and with surprising little effort. A college degree is no longer necessary; the pivot simply requires a few weeks of part-time training to learn new skills. You can either transport your existing skills to a new exciting tech industry (making yourself relevant by learning about it). Or you can train for a few weeks online and learn some brand new skills and jump directly into the technology. Come and learn about options:

* Here are some resources to find jobs.
