The ITW Conference supports our local schools through the GO FOR I.T. program. Every year students from five high schools across Nebraska are invited to be a guest to the conference to learn about the exciting opportunities in Information Technology. In addition to attending the conference, each student is paired up with a senior IT professional. Comments from past students include, “It was a good chance for me to see what real people do in their work involving information technology.”; “My mentor was great, she knew exactly what to tell me and it was easy to ask her questions.”, and “This was a great opportunity to improve my future.”
