The digital workplace market is vast, with estimates ranging dramatically, signaling abundant job opportunities, especially for youth tech enthusiasts. Many young people forgo college for accessible pathways into technical careers, as numerous entry-level positions do not mandate a degree when key skills are demonstrated. In Connecticut, the Workforce Alliance GET IT program provides no-cost training and stipends to support aspiring IT workers through immersive experiences. The initiative tailors coursework to align with student goals, resulting in success stories from participants seeking careers in programming, cybersecurity, and software development.
