MCC Extends TechWise Training Program
Building on a successful launch and continued student demand, the Manchester Community College Computer Science department is extending its partnership with the TechWise program, supported by TalentSpring and Google. This collaboration uniquely positions students from MCC’s Computer Science programs, including Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity, Cloud Services IT, Extended Reality, and Cybersecurity Investigations, to advance their careers. The tech giant chose MCC earlier this year for a virtual program designed to build entry-level software developer expertise.
The proven reputations of TalentSpring and Google, along with excellent results after the first round of training, created high demand for additional opportunities. The partnership also includes a stipend awarded to students at intervals over the course of the 18-month program.
“MCC’s participation in TechWise Cohort 2 demonstrated significant outcomes for students, reinforcing the college’s commitment to practical, future-focused education in computer science,” explains Brian Bicknell, President of Manchester Community College. “TechWise, with its blend of mentorship, scholarships, and industry-aligned training, complements the innovative teaching approaches of MCC’s Computer Science and Innovation programs.”
