Platform by Per Scholas Launches First Software Support Course in Dallas partnered with Cognizant

On Monday, March 5 Platform by Per Scholas launched its first Software Support course at the new Dallas, Texas location with twenty-one students. Software Support (also known as “Application Support Management”) is an employer-driven, skills building course that prepares students to troubleshoot and prioritize application coding problems. The course curriculum has been customized by Per Scholas’ Champion Partner, Cognizant, and focuses on developing student skills to pursue a zero-maintenance approach. In addition, students will have access to Platform by Per Scholas’ Career Advancement team who will prepare them for career opportunities with employer partners.
