"I arrived at Prime due to a potent mix of curiosity and desperation - I had always been fascinated by coding but I never believed I'd be able to learn it without a LOT OF HELP. I got that help at Prime and a hell of a lot more. The support I received and continue to receive from Prime staff has been life-changing."
"Prime has given me a chance to start over while providing a base of support to grow from. I can now pursue a career where I can exercise my creativity while making a real difference in the world. In addition to being prepared for a career in software development, I have also made lasting friendships with wonderful people!"
"Today was my first day as a UX Designer with a job!!! You guys did such an incredible job preparing us for this field. I tracked with everything they were talking about and I was even able to contribute a couple thoughts and questions in my first meeting with my team. Prime definitely prepared me to hit the ground running!"
Prime is proud to be helping the midwest develop tech talent to address the growing need in our economies. The Department of Employment and Economic Development predicts that more than 200,000 new tech jobs will be created in Minnesota alone in the next decade. Competition for talent is already at or near all-time highs with negative unemployment in some areas. This environment has encouraged employers to embrace non-traditional sources for talent and discover the benefits of building a team with more diverse backgrounds. Prime is part of the innovative MSP TechHire coalition that is working to help develop the talent businesses need while creating opportunities for groups underrepresented in our tech economy.
