Find Your Summit – Hello from the other side: How a fellowship model created careers in public service

Even as the public interest technology space has continued to grow, opportunities for early-career technologists remain few and far between. With an aging government workforce and the need to keep pace with new technologies, the time to invest in early-career tech talent is now.

Join early-career technologists working in the public interest technology space for a conversation on how engaging in a fellowship model has influenced their career trajectories in the space. They’ll discuss how the high-impact work they accomplished, the professional development they received, and the network building they engaged in as part of Coding it Forward’s Fellowship shaped the work they are doing now. They’ll also share their opinions on how this space can better meet the needs of early-career technologists.
