Progress and Momentum in Support of TechHire Initiative

Since its launch, TechHire communities across the country have piloted fast-track training programs designed to give people skills that are in high demand by employers. So far over 4,000 people have been trained and connected to work opportunities with local employers, earning average salaries of well over median income. US Chief Technology Officer Megan Smith announced how private organizations will seize on this progress with new steps to meet the scale of the opportunity:

• Expansion of TechHire to over 70 Cities, States, and Rural Areas.
• Growth of theTechHire Action Network.
• TechUP's Include.io 27-City Roadshow 2017.
