This program wants to build a new tech workforce in West Virginia


Generation West Virginia, a nonprofit created “to support opportunities for young people to build up their own careers and the economy in the state overall,” has expanded its programming. Its newest initiative is a tech training school to create a larger tech pipeline in the state, connect young people to tech jobs, and incentivize those young people to stay. The initiative, called NewForce, will succeed based on the strength of its partnerships. Partners will help cover tuition costs and be ready to recruit graduates for jobs.
