TECH CORPS is currently recruiting Technology Professionals who are willing to share their Talent and Time inspiring elementary school students in Central and Southwest Ohio.
If you are a technology professional you can help by volunteering with TECH CORPS’ TECHie Club program. TECHie Club is designed to introduce students to technology concepts and skills that are necessary for success in today’s classroom and tomorrow’s workplace.
TECHie Clubs are comprised of up to 20 students and meet weekly for 60-90 minutes throughout the school year. TECH CORPS trains teams of volunteers to use TECHie Club lessons and tools to introduce students to computing topics, such as: basic programming, web development, robotics, hardware identification, software applications, internet, and social networks. Depending on the size of Club’s volunteer team, volunteers visit the school weekly, bi-weekly or for just a few sessions.
Last year, TECH CORPS volunteers in Ohio, assisted more than 200 students in making the connection between the technology they love to use and the educational and career opportunities associated with the creation of this technology. This year, with your help, we will reach over 300 students!!!
We hope that you will join us in MAKING A DIFFERENCE for students in our community by becoming a TECH CORPS Volunteer today! To register as a volunteer visit: http://techcorps.org/volunteers Registration deadline is September 22, 2011.
