Rafael Alvarez - Preparing Students to Succeed

from Inside Social Innovation

While volunteering at a charter school, Rafael Alvarez was confronted with some shocking information—hardly any students in the senior class had plans to attend college. So, in true social entrepreneurial fashion, he decided to match up this under-served market with another under-served market, entry level IT. Talking with Design for Change host Sheela Sethuraman in this audio interview, he explains how Genesys Works prepares students technically and professionally to enter a corporate environment and change their lives. https://ssir.org/podcasts/entry/rafael_alvarez_-_preparing_students_to_succeed
