Detroiters needs high paying jobs. We need volunteers to serve as IT Registrars to assist residents at Detroit Public Library branches with online registration for Internet of Things (IoT) Class.
IT Registrars also assist residents with dissemination of study tips to complete class successfully and to connect with students throughout the class to motivate their completion.
WHY?
Economies are circular. Highly skilled workers attract high incomes, which attract retailers and manufacturers to sell their goods and services to these highly skilled workers, which creates more jobs. While there are plethora of technology jobs within the City of Detroit, there are few residents who have acquired the credentials for these technology jobs.
Uplift, Inc., a Cisco Networking Academy, is piloting an OPEN IT SCHOOL concept where Detroit residents can attend FREE anytime, anywhere IT classes on their smartphone, tablet, laptop and desktop. Those needing assistance with their assignments and exams can drop into experiential learning labs at 7 Detroit Public Library locations during designated weeks. Our first class, Intro to IoT (Internet of Things), launches 12/27/2017 and ends 3/3/2018.
Our goal is to register 5000 Detroit residents for this first class.
Volunteer Requirements
- Pleasant, happy, motivated attitude
- Complete Eventbrite class registration
