To address these concerns, JES & Co. developed an innovative program matching schools with local and national technology companies and providing mentors to students considering a career in technology. This program incorporates an "earn while you learn" component whereby students are paid while assisting in the implementation of their district's technology plans. They get hands-on experience and instruction as they work side by side with "mentors," today's industry
professionals. From unpacking and unboxing to connecting the cables to basic software setup, students are gaining valuable work experience in their own district. JES
& Co. has employed hundreds of student interns who have distributed, set-up, and configured thousands of computers in schools throughout Arizona. |
