Pluspunten

Job hunting support. Can count apprenticeship as work experience on resume.

Minpunten

These people present themselves as a group of charitable do-gooders that help select groups of people without a formal computer science education into software careers but in reality these are business people . You must provide a large part, if not all, of the salary you will be paid as an apprentice upfront as well as cover the cost of training through grants from your local workforce center. Techtonic group itself does not invest its own money in the form of scholarships or “loans” of any sort and they use their mission statement of helping others to gain industry contracts.

Some of this is true and some is inaccurate. We are a for profit company and we expect a lot of our apprentices and our employees. There is absolutely no cost to our apprenticeship program. In fact, we pay apprentices to participate in accordance with DOL guidelines. As a DOL certified apprenticeship, we do receive funding from grants and WIB's to help subsidize the program. We couldn't do this without them. We make a significant investment in every one of our apprentices and we expect good work in return. We would never belittle anyone. It is in our best interest that everyone succeeds in our program. I am sorry you left feeling the way you did. We probably could have done a better job of managing your expectations.
