    Training and transforming the lives of young adults in Southeast Michigan

    Preparing the next generation of leaders with tech skills

    The Detroit metropolitan area is a hotbed for the technology sector growth as the labor pool transitions from their manufacturing history. Within the Detroit region, IT occupations grew by 12% and are expected to grow by another 4% by 2023 (Source: EMSI).

    This results in a growing need for tech workers—especially junior, entry-level talent. With 17% of Detroit’s young adults unemployed and over 4,000 open tech jobs as of August 2019 (according to the Michigan Bureau of Labor Market Information and Strategic Initiatives), NPower aims to arm young adults, military veterans, and military spouses of Detroit with the skills needed to fill the growing tech talent pipeline.

    NPower talent is always so hungry to learn! At Rocket Companies, we want all our talent to come in, be eager to learn, and question our processes so we can churn out the best products! NPower talent does just that. Whenever we see NPower on a resume, we know this is going to be a top-notch candidate!

    Before NPower, I was trying to teach myself how to code. My favorite part of the program was interacting with my peers, instructors, and guest lecturers. I gained different perspectives on the field, as well as, the world. Now I work for Google, where they promote creativity and value people.
