WHAT IS STEAMTEAM MAGAZINE
STEAMTEAM MAGAZINE is a social organization that organizes networks and creates pathways to educational advancement and economic opportunity through apprenticeships, job placement and entrepreneurial start-ups in first responder, firefighter and digital media technology.
WHY STEAMTEAM ACADEMY
The problem set STEAMTEAM MAGAZINE resolves has four elements.
• Millions of prospective STEAM technical workers are unemployed, or have been isolated in low wage non-productive jobs.
• Virtually every small, medium or large city increasingly has to do deal with the unintended consequences of global climate change. and there is a growing need for first responders, firefighters and resilient city managers and IT professionals.
• Many small and large companies, academic and governmental agencies face a growing technology talent gap .
• New technologies and programming languages require ongoing training for existing knowledge and technology workers.
Old paradigm scenarios dictated that the quality technology jobs required a college degree and a minimum of 2 to 3 years of work experience in a given field to qualify for an interview. The reality is that there are not enough people with the qualifications to fill the existing and projected positions.
THE CHALLENGE
The challenge: there are enough motivated, talented candidates to fill the available. However, they not have the traditional certification, degree or job experience. In the last few years we have seen a flood of online industry and community resources that provide the basic skills to be hired for a technology. The problem: invent a channel to link the people with these skills to the jobs requiring their talent. STEAMTEAM provides the solution.
HOW STEAMTEAM WORKS
We identify and partner with community educational providers and many of the major online learning resources and the hundreds of companies to set up special on-ramps into apprenticeships, jobs and careers in technology that bypass your credentials and focus on you. If you have the aptitude, professionalism, and skills to get a job, LaunchCode can help you get your foot in the door.
