York Solutions Partners with MSP TechHire to Feature Training Program

MINNEAPOLIS - Aug. 3, 2017 - PRLog -- York Solutions, a national information technology consulting firm that provides clients with custom resource solutions to successfully complete IT projects, announced today their partnership with the City of Minneapolis' MSP TechHire program, which is offered through the division of Community Planning and Economic Development. York Solutions' Barriers to Entry program will now be featured as a resource on the MSP TechHire website, aiding the division's goal to develop a path for diverse workers to access training, support, and tech jobs across the Twin Cities region.

York's Barriers to Entry focuses on providing project management training to unemployed and underemployed people such as stay-at-home parents, veterans, and those looking for a career change. The 3-week program provides participants with training in the foundational principles of project management, effective communication, and a Scrum Master certification. Upon completion of the program, participants are ready to be deployed at York's clients in roles such as project coordination, quality assurance, or business analysis roles, depending on their related experience.

Of the partnership, Brandi Will, SVP of Program Development – B2E at York Solutions, said, "We are very proud and honored to partner with MSP TechHire. The missions of the Barriers to Entry program and the MSP TechHire initiative align so perfectly, as we both strive to help close the skills gap in IT through training a diverse workforce in the communities we serve."
