Tech Elevator’s Scholarship program advocating for
underrepresented communities in tech announced its latest award
recipients. Among the recipients, Pittsburgh resident, Michelle
Hanna was selected for the scholarship.
To date, Tech Elevator, a Stride, Inc. company (NYSE: LRN) and a
leading technology training provider helping individuals and
companies gain in-demand skills for the modern workforce, has
committed over $1M to establish the Represent Tech program and
provide access to underrepresented groups with a quality tech
education and a future in the world of technology.
“Growing up in an environment where money was always tight, I
had nobody to rely on except myself when it came to schooling
expenses,” said Michelle Hanna, a Represent Tech Scholarship
recipient. “When I received the phone call notifying me of the
result, I was about to jump up in excitement whilst also wanting to
just sit down and let out a huge sigh of relief. It was as if I had
received a sign letting me know that starting a career in tech was
the right choice. I am immensely grateful and honored for this
opportunity, and my family is excitedly cheering me on as I embark
on a new journey in a new career path.”
Hanna previously worked as a front office manager at a hotel
property. With her tech education, she hopes to work in software
development in the food service industry working on applications to
improve the customer experience.
Tech Elevator is proud to offer scholarships to historically
underrepresented groups creating greater accessibility to careers
in technology. To be eligible, a candidate must be accepted and
enrolled in an upcoming cohort, be job seeking, and eligible to
work in the United States.
