Words from our Alumni

Student Quote – Josephine

Josephine

“Dev/Mission really did everything to make me feel like I belong here. As a first-gen college student and an immigrant, it has been difficult for me to find people to have meaningful conversations about my career. Thankfully, Dev/Mission has a mentor-matching program. I was able to connect with a mentor to discuss any questions I have. Dev/Mission is an one of its kind of program that not only teaches in-demand skills but also focuses on creating a community and support system.”

Student Quote – Antonio

Antonio

“Initially, I felt a career in art didn’t align with my goals, so I joined Dev/Mission on my sister’s recommendation to explore tech. The Pre-Apprenticeship exceeded my expectations, providing invaluable resources, connections, and skills that reignited my passion for pursuing a Computer Science degree. Dev/Mission has not only boosted my technical abilities but also built my confidence in essential career skills.”

Student Quote – Melissa

Melissa

“What inspired me to join Dev/Mission was my uncertainty about what to study and the opportunity to explore the tech industry, despite lacking skills in coding, IT, or IoT. Although no one directly inspired my tech journey, social media and content creation sparked my interest, leading me to a role as a social media intern and eventually securing part-time positions in marketing at two non-profits and freelancing for small businesses.”

Student Quote – Alexa

Alexa

“I was inspired to join Dev/Mission because of its supportive community and the opportunity to help bring more diversity to tech. I wanted to expand my skills, and I’ve been diving in with full energy ever since! The best part so far has been connecting with new people and tackling challenges I never thought I could overcome. My advice for anyone considering Dev/Mission? Ask plenty of questions and enjoy every step! With a community ready to help, it’s the perfect place to learn and grow.”
