About Per Scholas Diverse by Design

Per Scholas first launched Diverse by Design as a conversation series in a strategic alliance with the Information Technology Senior Management Forum (ITSMF) in 2016 and created a space where leaders in tech and workforce development could discuss best practices to attract, retain and develop skilled diverse tech professionals.

We’re transforming words into action. We have created Per Scholas Diverse by Design to show that diversity is a design principle that makes good business sense, drives innovation, increases profitability, and leads to better engagement, belonging, and culture.
