Our programs provide:
Opportunity
Introduce youth to cloud and cybersecurity career paths.
Skill Development
Technical and personal development aligned with industry needs.
Mentorship & Social Capital
Build confidence and community through our network.
Career Pathways
Connect training to certification and job opportunities.
Learn Game Development
High school students from The STEM Early College @ NC A&T and A&T Four Middle College explored game development, design thinking, and Python coding using AI. This 8-session Saturday program fostered innovation, entrepreneurship, and technical skills, empowering students to build games, pitch business ideas, and gain real-world experience in tech.
STEMFEST
2025
STEMFest 2025 is a free, family-friendly event celebrating science, technology, engineering, and math across the Triad. Hosted by Honda Aircraft and the Greensboro Chamber, it features hands-on exhibits for Pre-K to high school students. Join us May 3 to inspire young minds and showcase STEM innovation and collaboration.
The Perfect
Pitch
The Perfect Pitch is a hands-on entrepreneurial program for 8th graders, launched by GCS and Say Yes Guilford. Students team up to create and present business ideas in a Shark Tank-style competition, gaining early exposure to careers and building confidence in their potential for future academic and professional success.
More Than Training: Building Confidence & Real Intelligence
TechBridge knows that youth face challenges like limited experience or skills gaps. That’s why we provide more than just technical training—we offer community, mentorship, and a growth mindset approach. Our focus on critical thinking, adaptability, and professional exposure prepares participants for both entry-level IT jobs and long-term career success.
Our Mission: Talent Is Everywhere, Opportunity Is Not
We believe talent is universal, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to make high-impact IT careers accessible to minorities and women, often within 12 months. By aligning with workforce development boards, educational organizations, and tech industry leaders, we’re helping build the diverse and skilled workforce the industry urgently needs.
