Make a giftLaunching Digital Futures
Launching Digital Futures moves a student through three stages and continues after a Scholar is hired. Employers help shape the model by setting readiness standards, teaching inside our programs, and reviewing finished work.
I belong.
Workshops, school partnerships, partner events, and Weekend Intensives in AI Inquiry and Game Design introduce high school students to technology, with no experience or application required. The Summer Intensive runs six weeks and bridges this stage and the next, ending with a project presented at Demo Day. Completing it is how a student becomes a Scholar.
I am ready.
Scholars build on the Summer Intensive through Hack-AI-Thons and the Tech Entrepreneurship Incubator.
I can grow.
Signal Studio pairs Scholars in college with employers, who scope projects for them and review the finished work. Once Scholars start a first role, coaching and training keep their skills current. Scholars also return to All Star Code as instructors, mentors, and speakers for the next cohort.
Employers take part at every stage.
Partners host events like the NFL Inspire Change event, and industry professionals teach sessions inside the Summer Intensive.
Engineers mentor Scholars and advise their ventures in the Tech Entrepreneurship Incubator. Partners host Scholar programming, like the Hack-AI-Thon the New York Jets and Microsoft held with us at MetLife Stadium.
Employers scope Signal Studio projects, review the finished work, and hire Scholars.
