Minnesota Tech for Success

Mission

Minnesota Tech for Success creates digital equity for students by partnering with schools and educational organizations to provide technology access, engaging STEM programming, and IT workforce development in underserved communities.

 

Values

Digital Inclusion: We believe that everyone deserves access to technology to thrive in today’s digital world.

Community Connection: We believe in being rooted in our community to give the best help we can to those who need it.

Sustainability: We believe that digital inclusion and environmental sustainability go hand in hand, and work to provide top-tier resources while recycling responsibly.

 

Education Programs

Today, it’s nearly impossible to gain employment without knowing basic computer skills. Unfortunately, many individuals and disenfranchised people don’t have the computer skills crucial to success in school and the workforce.

We work with schools and nonprofits to teach students of all ages computer literacy to help improve academic achievement and economic stability. We provide computers, software, technology skills training, and employment readiness education.

A combination of public and private grants allows the majority of MTFS Learn students to enroll in training at no cost.

For students currently enrolled in MN Benefits, Minnesota Tech for Success is WIOA approved and can be found on the Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL.) Speak with your employment counselor about co-enrolling to support this MTFS training.
