This program aligns with our broad objective of connecting underserved children, women, and youth with opportunities for improved career and health outcomes as they become successful adults, responsible citizens, and exemplary leaders.

We know that low skills perpetuate poverty and inequality. Skill development can reduce unemployment and underemployment, increase productivity, and improve living standards. We are building a vibrant community of responsible youth while also reducing high-risk behavior and increasing our youth’s circles of support.

TECHPlus is a unique program designed to create opportunities for Youth to access experiential learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, while also acquiring soft skills in leadership, financial literacy, health, and entrepreneurship. 

Through the TECHPlus Program, students will acquire marketable technical skills as they transition to post-secondary studies, while also building soft skills for job retention, team building, and leadership; in addition to access to mentorship and professional network for future career and employment prospects.

The program includes classroom instructions and hours of hands-on practice with Instructors available to support and provide after-class support.

The Life-Skills part of the program covers Health and Wellness, Leadership (Leaders-In-Training), Workplace Readiness, Entrepreneurship, and Financial Literacy; which are aimed at helping the students to develop a healthy body and mind, become financially literate, develop a growth mindset, build great self-confidence, develop coping skills, and build leadership skills; all in a fun and interactive way through case studies, role-playing, story-telling, workbooks, assignments, presentations, quizzes, puzzles, games, and other interactive media.
