518 GAME CHANGERS
THE CHALLENGE
Overcome Barriers to Meaningful Work
The skill gap for under-served populations to enter technology jobs is rapidly expanding.
​
Despite growth projections in the IT sector, women, people of color, and minoritized individuals can find it challenging to enter and stay in the IT industry.
​
As our workplaces are rapidly transforming many people are at risk of being left behind.
​
We started 518 Game Changes to clear a path to digital skills attainment and create opportunities for income growth and career advancement.
