Ignite Emporia is partnering with Microsoft, the Center on Rural Innovation and the Kauffman Foundation to bring specialized tech job training.
The Future is Digital training program is offering training for sales representatives, digital marketing specialists and project managers. Ignite Emporia Director Rob Gilligan says it’s vital training for people interested in careers like sales representatives, digital marketing specialists and project managers. And there’s another benefit for the participants.
Around 20 residents can take part, depending on participation in Wilson, North Carolina and Taos, New Mexico. Gilligan says this is the latest project through the partnership with CORI, which is focused on developing tech jobs and opportunities in rural areas.
