Amplifying Hispanic Perspectives in Technology Through Strategic Partnerships

We celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month annually from September 15 - October 15, but diversifying the tech landscape to include more Hispanic and Latinx perspectives and presence is something Per Scholas keeps in mind throughout the year. With partners, including TEKsystems, we have connected nearly 1,500 Hispanic learners with technology careers in a field in which they are typically not represented.
