Unfortunately not at this time. As an organization dedicated to matching trainees with opportunities in digital careers we are currently only offering online courses within our current geographic footprint where we have strong employer partnerships to support post-program placements. As we look to increase our impact and reach more young adults, veterans and veteran spouses we may consider expanding to more locations in the future.
To qualify for our Tech Fundamentals programs, you must be a young adult, 18–25 years of age with a high school diploma or equivalent and legally authorized to work in the US.
OR
A military veteran, reservist or spouse of a military veteran, over 21 years of age, currently serving or honorably discharged, and legally authorized to work in the US.
Since NPower was founded almost 20 years ago, our mission has been to serve those that need us most. Disconnected young adults, ages 18–25 years old, represent the talent pipeline of the future but often need support gaining the skills needed to enter the workforce. Veterans and veteran spouses often experience significant challenges and difficulties transitioning to civilian life and translating their military experience into successful high-paying careers.
No, our programs are 100% tuition-free to all accepted participants. We do ask that you come ready and determined to put in the work, trust the process, and maintain a professional attitude.
As our programs are free and only half day, we do not offer additional financial support. Many of our students also work part-time, before, after class or on the weekends. Our staff can help you find programs that may assist with covering financial responsibilities such as housing, utilities, food, or child care expenses.
