Apprenticeships

Start your tech career by gaining hands-on experience

Through a “learn and earn” model, an apprenticeship is a training program that allows you to learn tech skills in the classroom while you get paid to learn through on-the-job training. As you progress through the program, your job responsibilities and skills increase.

TechReady Illinois has partnered with City Colleges of Chicago and Catalyte to offer tech apprenticeships in either software development or cybersecuritywww.xxxhdtubefree.com. While most people associate apprenticeships with construction or the trades, a tech apprenticeship can help you start your new career in the tech field.
