Skilled trade nonprofits TechForce Foundation and National Technical Honor Society (NTHS) announced a collaboration focused on building the next generation of technicians. This collaboration provides students with resources and critical scholarship support to excel in their technical education and successfully transition to the skilled technician workforce. NTHS and TechForce celebrated the agreement with two $2,500 scholarships funded by NTHS and administered by TechForce, stated officials in a press release.
Partnership Will Provide Educational Resources & Career Opportunities
The nonprofit-to-nonprofit partnership will connect students to educational resources and career opportunities. TechForce says that it champions students through their education and into technician careers with resources including training content, scholarships and grants, industry connections, and career opportunities made available in the TechForce network. NTHS says that it is the premier honor society celebrating excellence in career and technical education, dedicated to recognizing student achievement and supporting members with resources throughout their educational and professional journeys.
“This collaborative agreement amplifies the impact of both our organizations,” said Jennifer Maher, TechForce Foundation CEO. “TechForce is eager to connect NTHS’s members with our career-building resources, and prepare students for real-world success in their education and career goals. TechForce is committed to supporting the next generation of technicians at every step of their journey. With partners like NTHS, TechForce inspires students to pursue technical education, supports them through their education, and helps them connect with successful technician careers, so that their communities thrive.”
Peyton Holland, NTHS executive director, added, “At NTHS, we believe that recognizing and supporting students in their technical education journey is essential to building a stronger, more skilled workforce. Our collaboration with TechForce Foundation helps us move forward in that mission. By connecting our members with the TechForce network and resources, and TechForce encouraging participation in NTHS, we’re opening doors for students to gain not only recognition, but also the real-world skills and opportunities they need to thrive in their careers.”
