UTAH (ABC4) – With everything that’s happening in the nation right now from labor shortages to “The Great Resignation,” the demand for tech talent in Utah is at an all-time high.
According to CompTIA’s Cyberstates 2021 report, Utah is projected to experience a 27 percent increase in tech occupation by 2030, suggesting that many Utahns are interested in making the career switch.
And there’s no better time to take up tech support than now, as Utah State University and Fullstack Academy have launched accelerated live-online tech training boot camps in coding, DevOps, cybersecurity, and data analytics.
These programs are designed to generate opportunities for participants to qualify for the many well-paying and in-demand tech careers in Utah by supporting them through creating a portfolio and providing them with the necessary qualifications and tech skills.
The boot camps do not require those interested to have a previous tech background or university enrollment. The courses will provide students with career guidance such as resume assistance and interview coaching. Those with a graduate degree will be qualified to earn an entry-level salary higher than Utah’s average entry-level salary following their completion of the program(s).
The four boot camps which are offered in part-time (12 weeks) and full-time (26 weeks) cohorts include:
