In 2020, the Greater Sacramento Economic Council used CAREs Act funding provided by the City of Sacramento to create an innovative workforce development initiative that quickly and cost-effectively trained people from underrepresented communities for lucrative careers in tech.  This program was called the Digital Upskill Program. This program was hugely successful with graduation and placement rates over 90% at wages 50% higher than traditional job placement. Programs like these are crucial to creating economic opportunities in historically marginalized communities throughout Sacramento. Workforce Development programs allow our communities the opportunity to garner skills in career fields that can be hard to access.
