Gain the Tech Skills to Level Up

Are you ready to Level Up, 412? Whether you are looking to add some basic computer skills to your toolkit, shift to a future-proof tech career, or boost your skills and have some fun as an elementary/middle/high school student we’ve got an opportunity for you!

By the end of the decade, 7 of every 10 new jobs in Pennsylvania will require computer skills; as you move up the economic ladder, that concentration increases. Currently, 82% of middle-income jobs require digital literacy and usage. Digital skills are also more lucrative, paying 17% more than non-digitized counterparts. 

COVID-19 has accelerated these changes, and we’re here to help. LevelUp 412 has brought together some of Pittsburgh’s most adept youth and adult education leadership to present a thoughtful array of FREE courses to start your journey.
