Center for Information Technology Talent Acceleration (C4ITA) is a not-for-profit organization, founded to address the chronic and pervasive severe imbalance between supply and demand of information technology talent in the marketplace. C4ITA flagship Initiative is to grow “diverse” local talent through our “Accelerated Software Engineering Apprenticeship Program” (ASEAP). Our primary goal is to create 500 software engineers in 5 years for “each county” in the Chicagoland area through the ASEAP model. Expansion to other parts of the USA to follow. At ASEAP, we also have a passionate goal to increase the percent of women computer science/software engineering graduates, above the state level average of 16%.
