Tech Talent Pipeline Residency at CUNY- College of Staten Island’s Post

We're thrilled to share that our Program Manager, Sabine Salandy, participated in a panel discussion today organized by the Center for an Urban Future (Jonathan Bowles) and supported by Amazon (Michael Sanicola) and the The Mayor's Office of Talent and Workforce Development (Abby Jo Sigal.) The topic at hand: "Helping Staten Islanders Access Tech Careers." Joined by insightful panelists Linda Baran, Kristi Nielson-Brescia, Kenya George, Andrew Greenfield, Scott Van Campen, and moderator Eli Dvorkin, they delved into the question: What's needed to make the tech sector in Staten Island and NYC more accessible?🎥 Watch some snippets where we explored the challenges in connecting qualified tech talent with the right opportunities. Our key message: Our students are not just qualified; they're exceptionally talented but often overlooked. On Staten Island, we've implemented diverse programs like TTP and CUNY2x to enhance tech education, ensuring our students are well-prepared for the transition to the workforce. However, we need your support. Employers, we encourage you to reach out and explore partnerships with us to retain top-tier tech talent in NYC and foster a deeper understanding of the incredible potential within our student community.
