- The Pathway Program™ is Tech Elevator’s nationally recognized professional development curriculum running in parallel to the 14-week coding bootcamp. The program prepares and supports students as they connect with leading tech employers in the region for tech-related roles. - I direct all aspects of the National Live Remote Pathway Program™ for three cohorts of students annually, with the goal of 100% full-time placement of graduates. I teach classes such as Networking 101, How to Write a Killer Resume, and Elevator Pitches.
