No,  volunteers do not need to have a technical background: the professional and soft skills our students gain from volunteers are as important as the technical skills and work experience. These connections build a network of contacts for students and promote pathways to employment.   

Time commitment for volunteering can be anywhere from one hour a week, to one session a cohort. If you have interest in lending your perspective and expertise, but are not sure how it might fit, please fill out the form and reach out to talk to our team.
